a volcanic neck forms when magma hardens in a volcano's pipe and is later exposed.
As magma rises, it carves a tube-shaped structure called a "magma conduit" or "volcanic conduit." This pathway allows the magma to move upward from the magma chamber beneath the Earth's surface towards the surface, where it can erupt as lava. The conduit can also help form various volcanic features, such as volcanoes or lava domes, depending on the composition and behavior of the magma. Over time, the solidified magma in the conduit can create a central vent or pipe structure within the volcano.
there are many parts of a volcano. There is the magma chamber: where all of the magma is held. There is the pipe: where the magma comes up and through the volcano. There is the dike, where where a slab forms when magma forces itself across rock layers. There is the crater, where a bowl shaped area forms around a volcanoes central vent. There is the vent: where magms comes out.
A volcanic neck is the throat of a volcano and consists of a pipe like conduit filled with hypabyssal rocks. the volcanic Lave from the Magma Chamber comes out through the throat when the volcano erupts. :) hope this helped :)
A black smoker is a underwater vent pipe that vents very hot magma-heated saltwater and it grows in height to as much as 20 feet. Even at high temperatures crabs and shrimp live on these smokers.
A Corncob pipe.

When magma hardens in a volcano's pipe, the result will eventually be a volcanic neck or volcanic plug. This landform is a solidified remnant of magma that once filled the volcano's vent.
a volcanic neck
Volcanic Neck The surrounding rock weathers more easily than the magma in the pipe. The resultant structure will first appear as a low flat protrusion which is slightly elevated from its surroundings. With additional weathering of the surrounding rock, the hardened magma may appear as a tower with possible basaltic columnar structure known as a volcanic plug or volcanic neck.

Hardened magma in a volcano's pipe that remains when softer rock around it has worn away is called the volcanic neck.
When magma has solidified in a volcanoes vent it is known as a volcanic plug. In some cases when there is a plug present in a stratovolcano, it can lead to very large explosive eruptions as pressure builds within the volcano.
A volcanic plug. Frequently when glacially eroded these plugs form crag and tail feature.
