When a lot of pressure is exerted on the magma underneath the earths crust, it is forced outwards in often violent eruptions. The size and type of eruptions depends on the amount of pressure, type of magma, and type of volcano. Hope that helps.

What happens to lava when a volcano erupt?
lava shoots out of the top
What type of lava comes from what volcano?
Shield volcanoes will erupt basaltic lava. Cinder cones erupt basaltic lava or basaltic andesite lava. Stratovolcanoes often erupt andesite lava, but may erupt basaltic or rhyolitic lava and all intermediate types as well.
What is an nonexplosive volcano?
Lava flow.
How did the wolf volcano erupt?
The lava flowed down the volcano and gas got in the side vents
What shoots out of a volcano during an eruption?
It depends on the type of eruption. Some will erupt lava or a mixture of lava and gas. Others will erupt gas, ash, and pumice.
When volcano erupt they expel what zircons or lava?
lava
What happens to lava when a volcano erupt?

What makes a volcano to erupt?
the hot lava
When does a volcano erupt quietly?
If it has liquid Lava
Why do some volcanoes erupt while others erupt quietly?
This is because of the time of volcano it is and the type of lava it excretes. A steep volcano will erupt with basaltic lava which is runny and can clog at the top. A shield volcano, however is different as the thick lava emitted just glops onward.
When did the first Shield Volcano Erupt?
bi lava
What does lava erupts through?
If you mean 'how does lava release itself from the volcano', it erupts through the volcano's crater. But if you mean 'how does lava erupt from the volcano', then sorry, I have no answers to that.

Do earthquakes cause volcanoes to erupt?
i think so because if a earthquake is close to a volcano the the shaking from a earthquake will put a crack in the volcano lava chamber and then the volcano erupt.
How did the wolf volcano erupt?
The lava flowed down the volcano and gas got in the side vents
What you call a volcano which can still erupt hot lava hot gases and dust?
An "Active" volcano.
