What about them?
A volcano is a mountain formed from outpourings of molten lava and magma from deep within the Earth. Repeated eruptions building layers upon layers of lava is how the volcano attains it's height. Earthquakes and fissures in the adjoining surfaces are common as the molten rock and trapped gases work their way towards the top. This forms a lava dome. When the pressure builds up more than the dome can sustain, it erupts with an explosive force, blasting the dome off and creating the more-popularly recognized crater. Pyroclastic clouds of poisonous gases pour down the sides at supersonic speeds knocking anything flat and then burying it under tons of ash.
