The Science Behind Volcanoes: Exploring Plate Tectonics and Eruptions

In this video, the teacher explains the origins of volcanoes through the concept of plate tectonics. They describe how the Earth's molten core and shifting stone plates create cracks and openings, allowing gas and heat to rise to the surface. The teacher also explains that volcanic eruptions occur when the pressure and temperature imbalances cause magma to break through the Earth's crust.
