Formation of igneous rocks molten rocks
called magma is found under high temperatures in the Earth's interior. Some
of this molten rock remains inside the Earth and some is ejected as lava
onto the Earth's surface during volcanic eruptions |

Submarine volcanoes Submarine volcanoes and volcanic vents are common
features on certain zones of the ocean floor. Some are active at the present
time and, in shallow water, disclose their presence by blasting steam and
rock-debris high above the surface of the sea |
