A mountain through which lava flows to Earth’s surface
Real World Example
Imagine you're trying to pour ketchup out of a new bottle, but it just won't come out until suddenly, it bursts out all at once. This is similar to a volcano, where pressure builds up inside the Earth until magma finds a way to escape to the surface. Just like the ketchup bottle, the Earth's surface holds back the magma until the pressure is too much, causing it to burst through the weakest point, which we see as a volcanic eruption.
