What moves up the earths surface in a pipe?
magma moves up earth suface
How magma moves upward though a volcano and reaches the surface during an eruption?
The inside of the earth (Mantle) pushes the hot magma liquid and makes the magma move toward the surface.
What provides the force that propels magma from a volcanic vent?
Lava moves from its viscosity.
As magma moves towards the surface of the Earth it may cool creating underground rock formations It may also pool into deep underground reservoirs called?
magma chambers. These reservoirs can hold large volumes of magma and are important in the formation of volcanic eruptions.
What term is used when describing characteristics of magma flow?
Rheology is the term used to describe the characteristics of magma flow, which includes its viscosity, temperature, pressure, and composition. These factors influence how magma moves and behaves beneath the Earth's surface.
A long tube through which magma moves from the magma chamber to the surface?
Pipe?
What moves up the earths surface in a pipe?
magma moves up earth suface
Why does the surface of the earth move when magma beneath it moves?
The crustal plates of the earth are less dense than the magma below. In a very real sense, we are floating on top of the magma.

Lava moves from its viscosity.
What is a pipe in the earth's surface?
Magma moves up Earth's surface in a pipe.
Where does magma form before it moves toward the earths surface?
in the mantle above the slab
What allows the tectonic plates in the lithosphere to move?
the hot magma moves around and they move.
Do gases escape from magma?
Yes. This is because as the magma moves towards the Earth's surface it is under a lower pressure so is able to maintain lesser volumes of dissolved gas. As such the extra gas exsolves and escapes from the magma.

magma chambers. These reservoirs can hold large volumes of magma and are important in the formation of volcanic eruptions.
Why is the magma moving under the lithosphere?
Magma moves under the lithosphere because the aesthenosphere (and magma) are ductile - they act as a fluid, although a very viscous one, and they do flow. The viscosity of a magma depends on its mineral composition. Magma will move in convection currents throughout the aesthenosphere due to the heating and cooling of it as it travels throughout the aesthenosphere.
How can magma cause the plates that carry the continents to move apart?
magma is very hot so as it boils it moves the plates of the earth causing the continents to slowly move apart
