Formative Assessment 2 - Volcanism and Its Morphology

The document describes a formative assessment on volcanism and volcano morphology. It includes definitions for basic volcano anatomy terms like magma, lava, and ash. It also lists the main types of volcanoes - stratovolcano, cinder cone, shield volcano, and lava dome. Students are asked process questions about the types of volcanoes, which type is most interesting and why, the most explosive and effusive eruptions, what could cause an eruption at Taal Volcano and what type it would be, and how to prepare for a volcanic eruption based on eruption types from a simulation.
