Detailed explanation-1: -Detailed Solution. The correct answer is option 4) i.e. Origin of magma due to the increasing melting point.
Detailed explanation-2: -Notable precursors to an eruption might include: An increase in the frequency and intensity of felt earthquakes. Noticeable steaming or fumarolic activity and new or enlarged areas of hot ground. Subtle swelling of the ground surface. Small changes in heat flow.
Detailed explanation-3: -There are four types of eruptions with properties determined mostly by the silica content of magma, and the amount of gas it contains. In order of increasing explosiveness, these are Hawai’ian, Strombolian, Vulcanian, and Plinian eruptions.
Detailed explanation-4: -Detailed Solution. The correct answer is option 3 i.e. Latite. Latite is a volcanic rock, while the rest are types of volcanoes. Latite is an igneous, volcanic rock and has an aphanitic-aphyric to aphyric-porphyritic texture.
Detailed explanation-5: -There are two types of eruptions in terms of activity, explosive eruptions and effusive eruptions. Explosive eruptions are characterized by gas-driven explosions that propels magma and tephra. Effusive eruptions, meanwhile, are characterized by the outpouring of lava without significant explosive eruption.
