The magma forms sills and magma chambers.
Large underground lava deposits are called magma chambers. These chambers are reservoirs of molten rock beneath the Earth's surface that can feed volcanic eruptions when the magma rises to the surface through volcanic vents.
Magma is less dense than rock and is buoyant due to this density difference. It will seek out any weaknesses in the rock above it to reach the surface.
magma chambers. These reservoirs can hold large volumes of magma and are important in the formation of volcanic eruptions.

Yes. That is what the asthenosphere is.

Molten rock, also known as magma, collects in underground chambers called magma chambers. These chambers are typically located within the Earth's crust, where the molten rock can accumulate and accumulate pressure until it eventually rises to the surface as a volcanic eruption.
Magma chambers form when molten rock, or magma, accumulates in underground reservoirs beneath the Earth's surface. This accumulation occurs as magma rises from the mantle due to pressure and temperature differences, often generated by tectonic processes such as subduction or rifting. Over time, as magma collects and cools, it may crystallize into igneous rock, but some remains in a liquid state, creating a chamber that can feed volcanic eruptions. Additionally, the presence of fractures and porous rock can facilitate the movement and storage of magma within these chambers.

No, the asthenosphere is a semi-fluid layer of the Earth's mantle located below the lithosphere. Magma chambers form in the Earth's crust where magma accumulates before rising to the surface as lava during volcanic activity.
