A liver transplant is surgery to replace a diseased liver with a healthy liver from another person. A whole liver may be transplanted, or just part of one. In most cases the healthy liver will come from an organ donor who has just died. Sometimes a healthy living person will donate part of their liver. A living donor may be a family member. Or it may be someone who is not related to you but whose blood type is a good match. People who donate part of their liver can have healthy lives with the liver that is left.
Stratovolcanoes are typically located on continental crust above subducting plates and are easily recognized by their often beautiful symmetrically-shaped cones (Mt. Fuji in Japan is probably one of the better known examples). Photo of Mt. Hood in Oregon, a stratovolcano that has been somewhat eroded by glacial activity.
The volcanic mudflows that occur at stratovolcanoes are known as Lahars. These flows can travel up to sixty miles per hour and have a consistency of wet cement. These flows de â¦ stroy everything in their path and can travel up to a hundred miles down the valleys from a voclano.hen a volcano erupts, sometimes the heat melts the ice and snow on the top of the volcano. This releases a large amount of water that gets mixed with the ash from the erupted â¦ volcano. The mixture of ash and water rushing down the volcano can pick up lots of debris.
