Some mountains are made by pushing great slabs of earth at each other. The squeezed material goes upward.
Volcanoes are formed by hot magma floating upward from the mantle, pushing the rock above ahead of the lava.
Actually, the mountain is the volcano. If the entry point on the surface of the earth were not a volcano, the mountain would have been formed by tectonic plate movement or by another means.
The height of the volcano -- rarely called a mountain -- is elevated by the accumulation of lava erupted through its mouth.
Volcanic and non-volcanic mountains are formed by different mechanisms. Volcanic mountains are essentially piles of material, such as ash and cooled lava, that has been erupted by a volcano. Most mountains, though, are not volcanic. There are a few ways that these can form. Some mountains, such as the Himalayas, are formed by colliding continents. When this happens, the Eaerth's crust essentially crumples, and mountain rangers are thrust up. Mountains can also form in areas where a continent is pulling apart. Here, sections of the crust slip downward, leaving other sections in a relatively higher position, forming mountains. Finally, there are domes. These form when there is a mass of an erosion-resistant rock such as granite underground. Geologic forces thrust the land upward and the weaker rock erodes away, leaving behind domes of stronger rock.
Mountains and volcanoes both are more or less cone shaped. They tend to be broader at their base, and narrower at their peak. Everything tends to fall, but the material in the middle is supported by the material at the outer sections, and the material at the outer sections therefore falls first and forms slopes. You can test this yourself by pouring a pile of sand, sugar, or anything made of particles that are not stuck together into a solid, in one location and seeing what kind of shape you get. It will also be more or less cone shaped.
They don't just look like mountains; most volcanoes are mountains. Over many years the material that a volcano erupts piles up to form a mountain.
It was formed by the tectonic upliftment in the earth's crust.
No, most mountains are formed from rocks squashed up as the continents move round the Earth furthermore, not every volcano is a mountain - for instance Yellowstone park is a volcano and it is not a mountain.
because large continents are bigger so that means more mountains and some mountains are volcanoes.
volcanoes are usually the mountains,the plate boundaries colliding depend on where the volcanoes are formed so they are not purposely always formed by mountains.
Yes, but they are not high mountains but shield volcanoes.
The mountains in New Zealand are plateau mountains
It was formed by the tectonic upliftment in the earth's crust.
Not all volcanoes are mountains though most do form mountains. Some volcanoes form as simple fissures in the ground. There is a so-called supervolcano in Yellowstone that, does not take the form of a mountain. Kimberlite volcanoes also erupt too violently to form mountains.
Some mountains are volcanoes, but most are not.
The answer is yes there are mountains, volcanoes (some active), plateau's and very deep trenches.

Yes volcanoes are very important for making mountains
Yes. Although most mountains are not volcanoes, many volcanoes are mountains.
shield volcanoes
because large continents are bigger so that means more mountains and some mountains are volcanoes.
Mountains
you have deserts, rivers, lakes,valleys,volcanoes,glaciers, and mountains.
