What exactly is a volcano?
A stratovolcano is a conical volcano with a steep profile that is composed of many layers of hardened lava, pumice, tephra, and volcanic ash. Stratovolcanoes capable of producing both effusive and explosive eruptions, some of which can be very large. They are the most dangerous type of volcano.
What is the meaning of strato?
Strato means a combining form representing stratus This means layer. here are some examples that have the word Strato in it The stratosphere is the next highest atmospheric layer. There are no clouds in the stratosphere. Commercial jets fly in the lower part of the stratosphere. As you go higher in the stratosphere, you pass through layers of increasing temperature. "Strato" is Latin for "layer, sheet. The strato volcano = a volcano built up of alternate layers of lava and ash . strato dessert = a desert that has more than one layer . * notice that the examples i gave you all mentioned many layers or more than one layer . so what i am trying to say is strato is more than one layer . I really hoped this helped and thanks for reading this information . :)

How are stratovolcanoes different from shield volcanoes?
Strato volcanoes and shield volcanoes are different because of their shape and also because of the may they erupt. Strato volcanoes have steep slopes, shaped like a tall narrow cone.. when a strato volcano erupts vast amounts of gasses such as sulphur dioxide, water and dust are thrown up into the atmosphere. This can cause global warming and pretty sunsets, magma obviously comes out too ( the magma in strato volcanoes is very thick ) . These eruptions are very violent, they can blow up to half of the volcano away leaving a massive crater in the middle of it. Shield volcanoes have gentle slopes, shaped like a low wide cone ( or a shield -hence the name ) when a strato volcano erupts lava fountains can form as hot liquid lava is thrown into the air but these are not usually very high. The lava that comes from shield volcanoes is very runny ( unlike strato volcanoes ) so red hot rivers of lava run down the sides of the volcano. i hope that answered your question. :)
