A crowded place.

A place few people.

A volcano that has steep sides. Thick, slow lava flows from them.

A volcano that has gentle slopes. Fast, runny lava flows from them.

A channel used to steer lava in another direction, especially if there is a village that is very close to the volcano.

When the oceanic crust is heavier than the continental crust and is forced downwards. As the continental crust is forced down pressure increases and triggers earthquakes. Friction and the heat from the mantle melts the crust and leads to the formation of volcanoes.

This happens when two plates moving together are both continental crust. Because they can't stuck or be destroyed they push together and rise, this can form mountains and leads to earthquakes.

This will occur when two plates move apart and form a gap, lava will then escape and a volcano erupts.

At this location two plates try to slide past each other but the two plates stick, pressure builds up more and more, and then when the pressure releases an earthquake occurs.
