Site D: A continental magmatic arc, where volcanoes are on top of a mountain belt nearthe edge ofthe continent. The volcanoes erupt light- colored and gray volcanic rocks. Older intrusive rocks, some with coarse crystals, are also exposed. [Samples 5,6, and 7] Site A: A line of volcanic islands and submarine mountains. Broadvolcanoes on the islands are foming dark volcanic rocks. [Sample 1]. Site E: An island arc, Site B: Circular volcanic depressions (calderas) on land, which are filled with light-colored volcanic ash and light-colored volcanic rocks. which is a chain of volcanic islands adjacent to an ocearic trench. The volcanoes erupt gray volcanic ash andlava flows. There are also some [Samples 2 and 3] intrusive rocks. [Samples 8 and 9] Site C: A mid-oceanridge that zigzags across the ocean floor. The rock sample is dark colored andis from a lumpy lava flow on the seafloor. [Sample 4]
