The type of volcano does not determine its level of acitivty. A cinder cone volcano may be active, dormant, or extinct.
their are 6 cinder cone volcanes
Cinder cones generally have a very steep slope. This slope is also considered gentle compared to the cones' short height.
Cinder Cones are composed of rock fragments and the eruption of cinders. The rock fragments pile up around a single crater forming a Cinder Cone.
There are three. From smallest to largest, they are: Cinder Cones, Composite Volcanoes (also called Strata Volcanoes), and then Shield Volcanoes.
The type of volcano does not determine its level of acitivty. A cinder cone volcano may be active, dormant, or extinct.
Cinder cones are typically short-lived because they form from a single eruption event rather than being continually active. The ejected volcanic material from cinder cone eruptions tends to pile up around the vent, creating a steep, conical shape. Once the eruption ceases, without ongoing volcanic activity, the cinder cone becomes dormant and erodes relatively quickly due to its loose, unconsolidated material.

The last eruption of Mount Edziza was about 10,000 years ago. The volcano is now in a dormant stage, however, there were numerous small eruptions that created cinder cones.
Cinder cone volcanoes erupt explosivly.
