Final answer:1. The video does not provide a specific number for the earthquakes that hit Yellowstone each year. 2. 'Old Faithful' is a geyser that erupts regularly, shooting hot water and steam into the air. 3. The video does not provide a specific conclusion about what Indian Ponds actually are.Explanation:1. Approximately how many earthquakes hit Yellowstone each year? The video does not provide a specific number for the earthquakes that hit Yellowstone each year.2. What does 'Old Faithful' show? 'Old Faithful' is a geyser that erupts regularly, shooting hot water and steam into the air.3. Indian Ponds is fascinating, but what do they conclude it actually IS? The video does not provide a specific conclusion about what Indian Ponds actually are.4. Underwater vents at the bottom of Yellowstone Lake pump out sediment and gas.5. An analysis of the mixed gases from the underwater vents in Yellowstone Lake shows the mix is the same as geyser steam.6. The unique quartz crystals are clear evidence that under the springs is a magma body.7. Despite the overwhelming evidence that there is a volcano under Yellowstone, what 'wasn’t quite right?' The video does not mention what 'wasn’t quite right' despite the overwhelming evidence of a volcano under Yellowstone.8. Why is the abundance of rhyolite so important? The video does not provide an explanation for the importance of the abundance of rhyolite.9. When Yellowstone erupted, incandescent ash poured out in what direction? The video does not provide information about the direction in which incandescent ash poured during the eruption.10. What is the approximate size of the giant Yellowstone volcano? The video does not provide the approximate size of the giant Yellowstone volcano.11. Finding the crater at Yellowstone coincided with the discovery of ash from Yellowstone where? The video does not specify where ash from Yellowstone was discovered.12. The eruption at Yellowstone was how much bigger than the eruption of Mt. St. Helens? The video does not provide a comparison between the eruption at Yellowstone and the eruption of Mt. St. Helens.13. The huge size of Yellowstone leads scientists to classify it as a supervolcano.14. Evidence shows that a force pushed the area of Yellowstone Park up so high that mountaintops formed on its peaks.15. We can map the magma under Yellowstone because seismic waves tend to slow down when rocks are hot and molten.16. How hot is the rock beneath Yellowstone? The video does not provide information about the temperature of the rock beneath Yellowstone.17. The 'chimney' under Yellowstone is called a magma conduit.18. Ancient craters show the remnants of ancient volcanoes showing the hot spot blasted out a supereruption and then did what? The video does not specify what the hot spot did after blasting out a supereruption.19. Evidence shows the v-shaped earthquake map wraps around the magma body.20. Plate tectonics show that the North American plate is moving, NOT the hotspot as was once believed.21. Other hotspots have been identified, such as the Anahim hotspot.22.
