Answer 3

No. Actually pimples form because of dirt build up in the poors. Dirt clogs up the poors with the natural oils your skin creats. And when they are ready to pop, its basically your skins way of getting rid of the dirt. A valcano on the other hand, is a build up of magma. Pour and simple... its like if you had a vein really close to your skin, and you had a lot of blood rushing to that one spot and over time that spot in your skin weakens and the blood explodes. The Earth had veins just like we do. But the are filled with lava or Magma. And when plates of land beniether the top most crust, shift into each other, they sometimes pinch off a vein of magma, and over time it can build up and then it pops out. But its not because its gotten clogged by dirt. A better anology would be a clogged artery.

No, volacnoes are not just the pimples they are capable of changing the environment of the earth one volcanic erruption can send back us into ice age with in months. they are capable of wiping of the human race face of the earth within hours. Eventually they capable to form a new live all together on the face of the earth.

Answer 5

nope.. volcanoes erupt when the tectonic plates are converging..
it will then subduct the denser plate and the magma will try to escape from any joints or cracks available on the ground. as time passes, a volcano is formed..

hope u understand what i am typing :D
