What type of volcano are most volcanoes?
Composite or Strato Volcanoes.
What types of volcanoes have explosive eruptions?
Strato and Cinder-cone volcanos but cinder cones can have non explosive too but not strato
Why do strato volcanoes erupt?
by pressure of molten lava of the dence viscocity.
What are the three types of mountains formed by volcanoes?
Cinder Cone, Shield, and Strato.
What are the 3 main volcanoes?
cinder cone volcano, strato volcano, and composite volcano
What are the parts of strato volcanoes?
Stratovolcanoes, also known as composite volcanoes, typically consist of alternating layers of solidified lava flows, volcanic ash, and cinders. They also feature a central vent or crater at the summit where eruptions occur. Additionally, stratovolcanoes often have a steep profile due to the viscous magma that tends to solidify quickly.
Are cinder cones usually found at the edge of large volcanoes?
Yes, although technically, strato-volcanoes *are* cinder cones (composite cones), built up of layers of ash. But the term "cinder cones" (ash cones) is usually applied to smaller cones that form within the vicinity of large volcanic calderas, such as Crater Lake in Oregon. They may be associated with either strato-volcanoes or shield volcanoes.
How many different types volcanoes are there?
3 3 Five: Shield, Composite/Strato, Cinder Cones, Spatter Cones and Complex.
Why is another name for composite volcano Strato?
A composite volcano is called a "strato" volcano because of its alternating layers of lava flow and volcanic ash, which can resemble the stratified layers of sedimentary rock ("strato" means layers in Latin). This type of volcano is characterized by its steep-sided profile and explosive eruptions.
How many different kinds of volcanoes are there and what are they?
There are six types: Shield, Strato. Caldera, Monogetic fields, Flood Basalts and Mid-ocean ridges.
The prefix strato means?
strato- stretched out horizontal layer as in clouds and atmospere layers strato-cumulus strat-us strato-sphere strato-pause
What are the three types of volcanoes and what are the difference?
cinder strato and shield shield is the least dangerous and the lava slowly flowsa down cinder erupts tephra not lava like a shield and is cone shaped strato is the most dangerous it erupts both tephra and lava
