Well first off...techtonic plates create the mountain called the volcano. One techtonic plate goes under the other and forces the other techtonic plate to go upwards creating a mountain, but the inside of the mountain is then filled with the earth's core or lava. Then pressure builds up inside the mountain until it can't take that much pressure and erupts. This is one of many ways a volcano eruptps, but it is the most common.

RafaVolcanic eruptions are caused by the release of pressure and gases from magma beneath the Earth's surface. When the pressure becomes too great, the magma forces its way to the surface, resulting in an eruption. These eruptions can be triggered by factors such as tectonic movements, gas buildup, or external events like landslides.

What is an eruption from the side of the of a volcano?
An eruption from the side of a volcano is called a lateral eruption. This usually happens at rift zones where a volcano breaks apart. It is also called a flank eruption. If the volcano is explosive, it may also be called a lateral blast.
What type of eruption was the arena volcano?
big eruption
Does the eruption of a volcano during and eclipse related to an eclipse?
No, the eruption of a volcano during an eclipse is just a coincidence!
What is an eruption from the side of a volcano called?
An eruption from the side of a volcano is called a lateral eruption. This type of eruption can occur due to the buildup of pressure in the volcano's magma chamber, causing lava, ash, and other volcanic materials to be expelled from the side of the volcano rather than the summit. Lateral eruptions can pose significant risks to nearby communities and infrastructure.
