Pahoehoe is a type of lava exhibiting a ropy smooth texture on the surface. It is created from the differences in the cooling rate between the surface and the interior of the lava flow. As the hot fluid interior of the flow moves, the slightly cooled exterior bunches up and pahoehoe is formed. Look at the pahoehoe below. In which direction was the lava moving? Choose the correct arrow to indicate flow
