volcanoes
Volcanoes are vents in the Earth's crust where molten rock (magma), ash, and gases escape from the interior, often building cone-shaped mountains as lava cools and hardens.
Formed by tectonic plate movement, they are classified as active, dormant, or extinct, with most found in the Pacific's "Ring of Fire".
