Question

How is magma formed?

Answer 1

Magma can also be created when hot, liquid rock intrudes into Earth's cold crust. As the liquid rock solidifies, it loses its heat to the surrounding crust. Much like hot fudge being poured over cold ice cream, this transfer of heat is able to melt the surrounding rock (the “ice cream”) into magma. Hope this helps

Answer 2

“Magma” is exclusively found and formed beneath the earth’s surface. Once magma is on or above the surface of the earth it is referred to as “lava.” Magma is typically formed by extreme temperature melting solid rock within the earth. Pressure and rock composition can also affect magma formation. High pressure can help magma be “squeezed” from partially molten rock. Likewise, as rocks are usually composed of different minerals with different melting points, magma formation from rocks is usually only partial and uneven.
