Volcanoes: Ring of Fire - answer-Exists because of spreading of sinking plates at plate boundaries interact with other Earth materials to produce rocks. Volcanic Vents - answer-An opening through which lava and other volcanic materials are extruded onto the surface. Volcanoes: Decompression Melting: - answer-Overlying pressure exerted on hot rock within the asthenosphere is decreased. Magma will begin to form even though the temperature is constant. Volcanoes: Decompression Melting: Hot...
