Mt Etna is higher than Ben Nevis because it is a volcanic mountain formed through multiple eruptions over time, whereas Ben Nevis is a non-volcanic mountain that has been shaped by glacial activity. Additionally, Mt Etna is located at a tectonic plate boundary where magma reaches the surface, allowing it to rise higher than Ben Nevis.
