Compared to a younger scoria cone, an older scoria cone would have:

A) more soil and plants
B) darker lava color
C) a more prominent central crater

Scoria Cone

A type of volcanic cone formed from fragments of lava ejected from a single vent, characterized by its steep sides and often associated with basaltic lava flows.

Soil And Plants

The interdependent relationship between soil and plant life, where soil provides nutrients, water, and support for plants, and plants contribute to soil health and structure.

Darker Lava

Typically refers to basalt, which is a dark-colored volcanic rock that results from the cooling of magnesium and iron-rich lava.
