No, volcanic rock is not living. It is formed from solidified magma and does not exhibit any characteristics of living organisms such as growth, metabolism, or reproduction.

No, limestone is a sedimentary rock that forms from the accumulation of marine organisms' shells and sediment. It is not formed by volcanic activity. Volcanic rocks, on the other hand, are formed from molten lava or magma that has cooled and solidified.
Mountain chains formed by magma coming through rift zones are called volcanic mountain chains or volcanic arcs.
A newly formed land consisting of an arc-shaped island chain is called a volcanic island arc. These volcanic islands are typically formed due to the convergence of tectonic plates where one plate subducts beneath another, leading to magma rising to the surface and creating a chain of volcanic islands.

Pioneer organisms on a newly formed volcanic island are likely to be bacteria, lichens, and certain types of plants like mosses. These organisms are well-suited to harsh, barren conditions and can begin the process of soil formation and ecosystem development. Over time, they pave the way for more complex plant and animal species to establish themselves on the island.
A pioneer species. These are the first organisms to colonize a newly formed or disturbed habitat, playing a vital role in initiating ecological succession. Weeds are often fast-growing pioneer species that quickly establish themselves in disrupted environments.
