Match the volcanic component with the function.
| Component | Function |
|---|---|
| i. Magma chamber | a. Pathway for magma to rise |
| ii. Conduit | b. Storage of molten rock beneath the surface |
| iii. Vent | c. Opening through which volcanic gases and materials escape |
Answer: B
The correct matching is i-b, ii-a, iii-c.
The magma chamber is the reservoir where molten rock is stored beneath the surface (i-b). The conduit is the pipe through which magma rises from the chamber (ii-a). The vent is the opening at the surface through which lava, gases and other material escape (iii-c).
The trap is mixing up the conduit and the vent: the conduit is the passage, while the vent is its opening at the top.
