How steep are shield volcanoes?
Shield volcanoes almost always emit very fluid or runny lava that spreads over a wide distance, so these volcanoes are not steep.Yes and no, it depends where and how the volcano forms, when it discombobulates, and so on.
Why shield volcanoes wide but not tall?
Basically because the type of lava they are made from is runnier and therefore spreads out more.
What type of magma does a composite volcano have?
Composite volcanoes can contain a wide variaty of magmas ranging from basaltic to rhyolitic.
What is the type of lava in the composite volcanoes?
Most composite volcanoes are comprised of Andesitic lava. Andesetic lava has an intermediate silica content compared to granitic with a high silica content and basaltic with a low silica content.
How often does a Volcano affect the earth?
Volcanoes can errput unpredictably and cause radiations of heat over a very wide spectrum of land.
How do shield volcanoes have wide bases?
Shield volcanoes are wide because they are made to function as an island, much to the surprise of many scientists. These volcanoes are enormously big, usually spreading out over 300 miles.
How Compare shield volcanoes and composite volcanoes?
Shield Volcanoes - Wide base found at constructive plate margins Composite Volcanoes - Steeper Sides found at Destructive (subduction) margins
Most of the earths volcanoes are located in a wide uneven loop around the pacific ocean what is the belt of volcanoes called?
The Ring of Fire

Are most volcanoes formed near colliding plate boundaries?
... Yes that is exactly where they form and the most dangerous volcanoes are formed in this area by wide opening, colliding plates.
Mos of the earths volcanoes are located in a wide uneven loop around the pacific ocean?
that is known as the Ring of Fire. The Ring of Fire has many volcanoes and is an earthquake danger zone.
Wide gently sloping mountains formed by low-silica lava flows are called?
shield volcanoes
Which planets largest volcanoes?
Mars, standing 16 miles high and over 300 miles wide.
Compare and contrast composite and shield volcanos?
Shield Volcanoes - Wide base found at constructive plate margins Composite Volcanoes - Steeper Sides found at Destructive (subduction) margins
