1 / 1 pts
In the image below select the order of events starting with the top image and moving to the bottom image.
First image is [ Select ] ["Gases propel ash vertically into the atmosphere.", "The volcano erupts in a lateral blast.", "A bulge grows on the north side of the volcano", "An earthquake loosens the bulge causing an enormous landslide."] . Second image is [ Select ] ["The volcano erupts in a lateral blast.", "A bulge grows on the north side of the volcano", "Gases propel ash vertically into the atmosphere.", "An earthquake loosens the bulge causing an enormous landslide."] . Third image is The volcano erupts in a lateral blast. . Fourth image is [ Select ] ["The volcano erupts in a lateral blast.", "A bulge grows on the north side of the volcano", "Gases propel ash vertically into the atmosphere.", "An earthquake loosens the bulge causing an enormous landslide."] .
Answer 1:
Correct!

This figure shows an eruption of low viscosity (viscosity) magma that probably has a [ Select ] ["mafic", "intermediate or felsic", "ultra mafic"] (composition) and would form [ Select ] ["rhyolite or andesite", "vesicular basalt", "non vesicular basalt"] (resulting rock type). Answer 1:
Correct!
low viscosity Answer 2:
Correct!
mafic
Answer 3:
Correct!
vesicular basalt Question 5
1 / 1 pts

1 / 1 pts
For the volcanic eruption in this photograph, complete the two missing parts of the sentence using the type of volcanic feature and type of magma. This figure shows a [ Select ] ["ash eruption", "lava flow", "a pyroclastic eruption", ""] (type of volcanic feature) that forms from eruption of [ Select ] ["eruption of low viscosity mafic lava", "eruption of viscious felsic lava", "eruption of low viscosity felsic lava"] (type of magma).
Answer 1:
Correct!
lava flow Answer 2:
Correct!
eruption of low viscosity mafic lava Question 9
