Does lava build up the land when a volcano erupts?

Yes Yes


How does a volcano build into a mountain?

A volcano forms a mountain as ash and/or lava build up over time from successive eruptions.


How does a volcano interrupt?

A volcano erupts when gases build to an inescapable high pressure. The gas pushes magma and ash through the cone of the volcano causing an eruption.


How can you tell an vocano is about to erupt?

Before a Volcano "erupts" the mountain and surrounding areas will experience seismic activity (Earthquakes) for hours, days, weeks and even months before the initial eruption. Also Vulcanologist monitor gas emissions from the volcano to see if there is a build up gas. And of course there many be some steam/smoke coming from the volcano (Does not have to be from the cone of the volcano, can be from vents on the side or further down the volcano!) In the case of Mt St Helens - A "DOME" appeared on the side of the mountain, this was a build up of Magma further down the mountain slope in which grew larger by the day until the initial and catastrophic eruption.


How does a volcano AFFECT the environment?

When a volcano erupts, it then could build up more land, due to the lava drying up. Also it can damage the land, crops, vegetation, vice-versa. -TheBestAnswers.

Why can volcanoes be both constructive and destructive?

The ash and lava that a volcano erupts can build up the land, which include the mountain of the volcano itself. In the case of underwater volcanoes, this process can created new islands. At the same time, the slopes of volcanoes are often unstable and prone to landslides, which are destructive. Very large eruptions can form large explosion craters and may even result in the volcano collapsing to forma depression called a caldera.


Is a volcano a type of mountain?

Not necessarily. Any hole or fissure from which molten rock or pyroclastic material emerges is a volcano. Not all volcanoes build into mountains.


What is the best describes a volcano?

A volcano could be described as explosive, hot and soggy because of the lava running down the sides of it and it could be described as hard because it is made up of rocks.A volcano stupid is a formation that is caused by massive builds of cooled lava that builds up until it form a mountain, then underneath all of that cooled off lava is a lava chamber that will build up over time then it would explode.A fluidized flow is best described as a dispersion of large fragments in a medium of fluidized.
