How is the way volcanic mountain form different from the way other mountains form .?

Mountains can be formed in a couple of different ways. Different kinds of mountains are formed different ways. There are four different kinds of mountains: Volcanic, erosional, fault-block, and folded. Volcanic mountains, also known as volcanoes, can be standing alone or be part of one big chain of volcanoes. Volcanoes are areas in which lava and magma move to the surface and burst through the crust. Igneous rocks are formed here. Sometimes, hot molten rock spews out of volcanoes. This is earth's way of releasing its internal heat

What are volcano mountains called?

Volcano mountains are commonly referred to as "volcanoes." They are formed by the accumulation of lava, ash, and other volcanic materials that erupt from a magma chamber beneath the Earth's surface. Different types of volcanoes include stratovolcanoes, shield volcanoes, and cinder cone volcanoes, each characterized by distinct shapes and eruption styles.


Why are volcanoes usually near hills?
