Question 8 • DRHS GA-GSE Earth Systems

Which phrase describes a lava plateau?

Answer
A
steep-sided mountain
B
gently sloping mountain
C
hardened magma in a pipe
D
volcanic material in valleys

Explanation

A lava plateau forms when repeated flows of lava spread over a broad area and harden, often filling valleys and low-lying land. Over time, the hardened volcanic material builds a wide, relatively flat surface. So “volcanic material in valleys” best describes a lava plateau.
