Two tectonic plates pushed against each other creating a fault line and pushing the ground around it upward, this is how mountains are formed, but volcanoes follow the same process except the ground below a volcano must be a crevice reaching the Earth's second layer, the Mantle, in order to reach high enough temperatures that magma or "lava" can be formed from rocks in the crevice.
