Term: Magma

Description:

Magma, in geology, refers to molten rock material beneath the Earth's surface. It is a mixture of molten minerals, solids, and gases. Magma is formed when the Earth's mantle melts due to high temperatures and pressures. This liquid rock is responsible for the creation of igneous rocks when it cools and solidifies.

Sample Sentences:

1. The volcano erupted, spewing out scorching hot magma.

2. Geologists study the composition and behavior of magma to understand volcanic activity better.

3. The cooling and hardening of magma form different types of igneous rocks.
