| Volcanic cones | | is an opening, or rupture, in a planet's surface or crust, which allows hot, molten rock, ash, and gases to escape from below the surface |
| aftershock | | is an active volcano in the Hawaiʻian Islands |
| Pumice | | is the solid outermost shell of a rocky planet |
| epicenter | | are waves that travel through the Earth, most often as the result of a tectonic earthquake, sometimes from an explosion. |
| March | | two plates move apart from each other and the space that this creates is filled with new crustal material sourced from molten magma that forms below |
| Easter | | refers to heat sources within the planet |
| Andesite | | is a roughly circular mound-shaped protrusion resulting from the slow eruption of felsic lava (usually rhyolite and/or dacite) from a volcano |

| Coach Gates | | so named for their broad, shield-like profiles, are formed by the eruption of low-viscosity lavas that can flow a great distance from a vent, but not generally explode catastrophically |
| maroon | | is another Greek term from Seism - "the shakes" and Graphos - "I draw |
| Volcanology | | occur where two plates slide towards each other commonly forming either a subduction zone (if one plate moves underneath the other) or a continental collision (if the two plates contain continental crust). |
