lava
A cinder cone volcano typically has basaltic lava, which is low in silica content and flows easily. This results in the formation of steep-sided cones made of mostly cinders and volcanic ash.

The silica content of the lava from a cinder cone volcano is typically low to moderate. This type of volcano erupts basaltic to andesitic lava, which contains lower silica levels compared to other types of volcanoes like stratovolcanoes.
The Arenal Volcano is a cinder cone volcano
A Stratovolcano is a steep volcano made mostly of layers of ash, lava and cinders. Stratovolcanoes have a tendency to be very explosive and produce significant quantities of ash.
Both cinder cone and shield volcanoes are primarily composed of basaltic lava flows. However, cinder cone volcanoes are characterized by steep slopes, smaller size, and built up from pyroclastic material like ash and cinders, while shield volcanoes are much larger with gentle slopes built from numerous lava flows.
No. Cinder cone volcanoes erupt fountains of lava, which is how the cinder cone is built up. Cinder cones that are nearing the end of activity may also produce lava flows.

Mount Parícutin is a cinder cone volcano, not a composite shield volcano. It formed through a single eruption in 1943 and is made up mainly of pyroclastic material such as ash, cinders, and lava flows, typical of cinder cone volcanoes.
No. A shield volcano is a large volcano with broad, shallow slopes formed from layers of lava flows formed by non-explosive eruptions. A cinder cone volcano is a small, steep-sloped volcano composed of pieces of rock formed by lava that was ejected explosively into the air.
Mount Fuji is a stratovolcano, which is a composite volcano formed by both lava flows and explosive eruptions. It is not a cinder cone or shield volcano.
