Under water lava would be colder than normal lava. So they would differ a lot.

The lava itself is not different, it is the environment that is different. Water is much denser than air and has a higher heat capacity, meaning it takes more energy to heat it up. As a result, lava will lose heat to water extremely quickly, and so will cool much faster than it can on land.
Underwater volcanoes can be as bad as the ones on top, because they can split the earth just like it did to Pangea. What is Pangea? Well its was a large continent made up with the continents today and it was a big continents until plate tectonics. It was here from thousands, millions, and billions of years ago. I hope it answered your question and i hope it wasn't wrong!!

Lava that erupts underwater and takes the form of round lumps is called pillow lava
Its definently "Pillow Lava".
lava
Magma that reaches the surface it is called lava.Molten rock from the Earth's interior that breaks through to the surface is called lava
Underwater eruptions cause tsunamis and cause lava to form and underwater ridge.
Pillow basalt forms when lava erupts deep underwater. At a great enough depth there is enough pressure to prevent a steam explosion, so instead the water rapidly cools the surface of the lava, forming a solid crust around it. eventually the lava breaks though this crust only to have its surface cooled again, and the cycle repeats
