Earthquakes and Volcanoes Concepts

The video takes viewers on a journey to explore the fascinating phenomena of volcanoes and earthquakes. It explains how volcanoes are formed, the process of eruption, and the difference between magma and lava. The video also delves into earthquakes, describing the movement of tectonic plates and how the Richter scale measures earthquake magnitude. The presentation concludes with a recap and encouragement for young explorers to stay curious.
