Is a Dome volcano the same as a Lava Dome volcano?
Yes, a Dome volcano and a Lava Dome volcano are the same. A Dome volcano is characterized by the formation of a dome-shaped mound of lava that accumulates around the volcanic vent. Lava Domes are typically associated with eruptions of viscous lava that solidifies quickly, leading to the dome-like structure.
What volcano has a rounded dome?

Why did the Lassen peak volcano erupt?
Mt. Lassen is a lava dome type of volcano. The domes of lava dome volcanoes grows from within, and commonly occur within the craters or on the flanks of large composite volcanoes.

Is a dome volcano the same as a cone volcano. if not - what is a dome volcano?

Usually it extrudes very slowly, but constantly. A cone volcano has an appearance of an upside-down funnel with a hole in the top which the lava shoots out of.

Why is a lava dome called a lava dome?
A lava domes is a structure that forms when a volcano extrudes very viscous lava that builds into a dome-shaped pile rather than flow downhill.
What type of volcano forms a lava dome?
Acid Lava Dome is a type of volcano that forms when viscous acid lava solidifies quickly to form a volcano with steep convex sides.
What type of plate boundary is a lava dome volcano on?
A lava dome volcano is typically found at convergent plate boundaries, where two tectonic plates are colliding. The magma from the volcano is usually thick and sticky, causing it to build up and form a dome-shaped structure.
What is the length and height of the dome volcano?

What is a lava dome volcano?
Lava starts building up underneath some surface (solid) materials. It is being pushed up by some underground forces. The upward pressure causes a dome like cap covering the 'liquid' lava. Eventually the lava breaks through and you have a volcanic eruption.
