The task in the image is to label the
parts of a volcano using the provided terms:
Given terms:
- Magma chamber
- Crater
- Lava
- Main vent
- Ash
- Magma
- Secondary vent
- Layers
---
Step-by-step Solution:
We are given a diagram of a volcano with blank labels pointing to different parts. Below it, there's a fully labeled version of the same diagram, which we can use as a reference.
Let’s match each term to its correct location on the volcano diagram:
1.
Magma chamber – This is the large underground reservoir where magma collects. It's located at the
bottom center of the volcano, beneath the mountain.
2.
Main vent – This is the central pipe that connects the magma chamber to the surface. It runs vertically up from the magma chamber through the center of the volcano.
3.
Secondary vent – These are smaller side vents branching off from the main vent or the sides of the volcano. They allow magma and gases to escape laterally.
4.
Crater – The bowl-shaped depression at the top of the volcano, where eruptions occur. It's located at the
summit.
5.
Lava – The molten rock that flows out of the volcano during an eruption. It appears flowing down the slopes from the crater.
6.
Ash – Fine particles ejected into the air during an eruption. It's shown as gray clouds rising above the crater.
7.
Magma – The molten rock beneath the Earth’s surface (before it erupts). It's shown inside the volcano, especially near the main vent and magma chamber.
8.
Layers – Refers to the
layers of lava and ash that build up the volcano over time. These are visible on the outer slopes of the volcano.

Final Answer: Labeling the Diagram
Using the labeled version below as a guide, here’s how the blanks should be filled in the top diagram:
From
top to bottom, left to right:
1.
Ash → points to the gray cloud coming out of the crater
2.
Crater → at the top opening of the volcano
3.
Lava → flowing down the slope from the crater
4.
Main vent → vertical channel from magma chamber to crater
5.
Secondary vent → side branch from the main vent
6.
Layers → the sloped sides showing built-up material
7.
Magma → molten rock inside the volcano (near the vent)
8.
Magma chamber → large pool at the base of the volcano
> Note: The bottommost box (under the volcano) corresponds to the
magma chamber.

Final Check:
All eight terms are used exactly once.
✔ Answer:
Label the boxes in order (from top to bottom, left to right):
1. Ash
2. Crater
3. Lava
4. Main vent
5. Secondary vent
6. Layers
7. Magma
8. Magma chamber
And answer the question:
👉
Do you know all the parts of the volcano? YES / NO →
YES
