Magma that reaches the Earth's surface flows from a volcano as lava. When magma erupts through a volcano, it becomes lava, which can flow in various forms, such as basaltic, andesitic, or rhyolitic, depending on its composition. As lava cools, it solidifies and can form different types of volcanic rock.

How does the magma get into the volcano?

It doesn't. The volcano is a result of the magma travelling from the earths core through geological faults and breaking through the crust of the Earth. The mountain shaped Volcano that you see is the remnants of solidified ash and magma (pumice) which has been ejected from the magma chamber. This cone builds up over the fissure which ejects the magma onto the surface.


When magma from beneath the Earths surface erupts as a volcano what happens?

When magma erupts as a volcano, it can cause explosive eruptions that release ash, gases, and lava. The magma can flow down the volcano's slopes, leading to the destruction of surrounding areas and potential harm to human life. Eruptions can also result in pyroclastic flows, lahars, and volcanic ash fall, all of which can have wide-reaching impacts on the environment and local communities.
