Volcanoes, magma, and lava. Volcanoes are weak spots in the crusts where molten material, or magma, comes to the surface.. When magma reaches the surface it is called lava.. The lava released during volcanic activity builds up Earth’s surface, it is a constructive force.. Gwen . Nytes. Composition. The magma in this type of volcano is made of basaltic-andesitic materials. The magma has an intermediate viscosity, so . it’s mildly explosive. It also consists of a lot of gases, so when the lava cools and hardens in the air, gas bubbles get trapped inside. The particles fall back down as cinders, and pile around the vent.. Basaltic Lava – low silica content, low viscosity, low gas content. Hot spots – magma moves up from lower mantle and plates move over it . Ex. Hawaii. (note: see video on favorites).
