the magma(lava) builds up a mountain that soon becomes a volcano.
and this is how it happans

form a volcanic shape with play-dough
the shape of a dome volcano is like an triangle
A shield volcano is low and wide.
Shield Volcano
How did the volcano kohala form
Generally a volcano will eject lava from the top of the familiar conical shape but many have smaller vents on the side which appear via cracks or fissures called 'dykes' which blow lava out sideways and form what are called 'parasitic cones' on the side of the main conical form of the volcano.
Lava. When the lava comes out of the volcano, gravity pulls the lava down the cone of the volcano, and depending the the viscocity of the lava, it forms a 'cone' or 'shield' as it cools. Thinner lava forms a shield volcano; thicker lava forms a steeper cone shape.
Kilauea is a shield volcano.
After many many years the rock grows taller and taller because the volcano keeps erupting and cooling, making the volcano bigger and bigger. Magma (lava) seeps through cracks in the earths crust, it cools and hardens to form a cone shape on the surface. This happens repeatedly over hundreds of years thus eventually forming the cone shape of a volcano.
WHat is a volcano
Well it depends on how bad the lava flow is. If the lava is flowing slow then the shape of the volcano won't change much, But if it flows with force then bits of the volcano will fall off and change the shape of the volcano. Hope this answer helps!!
