How does rising magma and flowing lava create volcanic islands?

When lava erupts, it cools and hardens. After long periods of this happening and cooling in layers on top of all the other cooled lava, a mountain of hardened lava rises out of the water and to the surface. This rising mountain soon will become a volcanic island.

Does volcanic mountains build from layers of ash cinders and lava erupting onto the earth's surface?

Yes, volcanic mountains are formed from layers of ash, cinders, and lava that accumulate over time from volcanic eruptions. As lava cools and solidifies, it forms layers that build up to create the mountain. The repeated eruptions and accumulation of volcanic material contribute to the growth of the mountain over time.

What is a mountain built from magma?

A mountain built from magma is called a volcanic mountain. It forms when magma from beneath the Earth's surface erupts through a vent or fissure, cools, and solidifies to create layers of volcanic rock and ash over time. Examples include Mount St. Helens in the United States and Mount Fuji in Japan.
