Information:  - A continent is one of several very large landmasses on Earth. Generally identified by convention rather than any strict criteria, up to seven regions are commonly regarded as continents. Ordered from largest in size to smallest, they are: Asia, Africa, North America, South America, Antarctica, Europe, and Australia. In geology, areas of continental crust include regions covered with water.  - Baltra Island, or Isla Baltra, is a small island of the Galápagos Islands. Also known as South Seymour (named after Lord Hugh Seymour), Baltra is a small flat island located near the center of the Galápagos. It was created by geological uplift. The island is very arid and vegetation consists of salt bushes, prickly pear cactus and palo santo trees.  - A cay (or ), also spelled caye or key, is a small, low-elevation, sandy island on the surface of a coral reef. Cays occur in tropical environments throughout the Pacific, Atlantic and Indian Oceans (including in the Caribbean and on the Great Barrier Reef and Belize Barrier Reef).  - North Seymour ( Spanish : Isla Seymour Norte ) is a small island near to Baltra Island in the Galapagos Islands . It was formed by uplift of a submarine lava formation . The whole island is covered with low , bushy vegetation . The island is named after an English nobleman , Lord Hugh Seymour . North Seymour Island has an area of 1.9 square kilometres ( 0.73 sq mi ) and a maximum altitude of 28 metres ( 92 ft ) . This island is home to a large population of blue - footed boobies and swallow - tailed gulls . It hosts one of the largest populations of magnificent frigatebirds ( Fregata magnificens ) and a slow growing population of the Galapagos land iguanas ( Conolophus subcristatus ) . North Seymour has a visitor trail approximately 2 kilometres ( 1.2 mi ) in length crossing the inland of the island and exploring the rocky coast . The stock for the captive breeding program of the Galapagos land iguana is descended from iguanas which Captain G. Allan Hancock translocated from nearby Baltra Island to North Seymour Island in the 1930s . This was very important because Baltra Island had a U.S airbase on it during World War II , while North Seymour , which has no people who live on it , and is only viewable today with an official guide who works for the Galapagos National Park . North Seymour was created by seismic uplift , rather than being of volcanic origin . The island has a flat profile with cliffs only a few meters from the shoreline , where swallowtail gulls and tropicbirds sit perched in ledges . A tiny forest of silver - grey Palo Santo trees stand just above the landing , usually without leaves , waiting for rain to bring them into bloom . The island is teeming with life . While visiting the island , one may have to give way to a passing sea lion or marine iguana . Flocks of pelicans and swallow - tailed gulls feed off shore , and seasonally , Nazca boobies can also be seen . North Seymour is an extraordinary place for breeding birds , and is home to one of the largest populations of nesting blue -...  - The Philippines, officially the Republic of the Philippines, is a sovereign island country in Southeast Asia situated in the western Pacific Ocean. It consists of about 7,641 islands that are categorized broadly under three main geographical divisions from north to south: Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. The capital city of the Philippines is Manila and the most populous city is Quezon City, both part of Metro Manila. Bounded by the South China Sea on the west, the Philippine Sea on the east and the Celebes Sea on the southwest, the Philippines shares maritime borders with Taiwan to the north, Vietnam to the west, Palau to the east and Malaysia and Indonesia to the south.  - An island or isle is any piece of sub-continental land that is surrounded by water. Very small islands such as emergent land features on atolls can be called islets, skerries, cays or keys. An island in a river or a lake island may be called an eyot or ait, and a small island off the coast may be called a holm. A grouping of geographically or geologically related islands is called an archipelago, e.g. the Philippines.  - Earth, otherwise known as the world, is the third planet from the Sun and the only object in the Universe known to harbor life. It is the densest planet in the Solar System and the largest of the four terrestrial planets.  - The Galápagos Islands (official name: "Archipiélago de Colón", other Spanish name: "Islas Galápagos") are an archipelago of volcanic islands distributed on either side of the Equator in the Pacific Ocean surrounding the centre of the Western Hemisphere, west of continental Ecuador, of which they are a part. The islands are known for their vast number of endemic species and were studied by Charles Darwin during the voyage of the "Beagle", as his observations and collections contributed to the inception of Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection.  - Lava is the molten rock expelled by a volcano during an eruption. The resulting rock after solidification and cooling is also called "lava". The molten rock is formed in the interior of some planets, including Earth, and some of their satellites. The source of the heat that melts the rock within the earth is geothermal energy. When first erupted from a volcanic vent, lava is a liquid usually at temperatures from .
