Sometimes, volcanoes erupt in a line, like when you knock over a row of dominoes. Imagine the Earth is like a big cake, and when it gets hot inside, it pushes up molten rock from deep below. This molten rock can cause several volcanoes to form right next to each other. When one volcano explodes, it might wake up its neighbors and cause them to erupt too, like a volcanic domino effect!
Examples
- Imagine a row of volcanoes on a birthday cake, when one erupts, the others wake up too.
- If you have three lava lamps, and one starts bubbling, they might all start bubbling together.
