Q1
Which detail is explicitly stated about magma in this volcano passage? Volcanoes form where Earth’s crust has weak spots, often near plate boundaries. Beneath the surface, heat melts rock into magma, which collects in pockets. Gas dissolved in magma builds pressure as magma rises toward the surface. When pressure becomes too great, an eruption can occur through a vent. At the surface, magma is called lava and may create a lava flow. The erupted material cools and adds new layers of rock to the volcano.
