it is referred to as lava when it is above ground, when below ground it is referred to as magma
Both pillow lava and pahoehoe lava are types of basaltic lava that form during submarine volcanic eruptions. They both have smooth, ropy surfaces, caused by the flow of lava, and are relatively low in viscosity.
Lava in mid-oceanic volcanoes is typically basaltic in composition. Basalt lava is relatively low in silica content and flows more easily compared to other types of lava. It often forms underwater pillow lava structures when it comes in contact with seawater.
A lava flow is basically a stream of lava on the surface. A lava tube is an underground cave through which lava flows downhill. A lava fountain is lava shooting into the air out of a volcano in much the same manner as a water fountain.
Magma and lava are like each other but magma is below the Earth and lava reaches the Earth's surface.
no, there are more rocks
No, not all volcanoes shoot out the same lava. There are four different kinds of lava. 1.) Volcanic 2.) magma 3.) sedimentary 4.) diesel hope this helps!
No creatures live in lava, lava damages all mobs in the same way as normal people.
No. Lava flows vary in composition. Most lava flows consist of basaltic lava, which can flow as smooth phoehoe or form jagged and broken a'a. Other lava flows are more viscous and will have blocky surfaces and tend to be short and thick.

Lava om Mars is the same color as on Earth.

No. The fastest lava flows on earth have been recorded at Mount Nyiragongo in the Congo flowing at 60 mph (100 km/h). In most cases, however, lava flows very slowly. Blocky lava flows are the slowest, moving at speeds comparable to glaciers.
no, there are more rocks
Magma; they are both the same substance, but lava has been exposed to the surface.
