An active volcano is one which maintains a hot magma chamber, so that it might erupt anytime in the future. An inactive (extinct or dormant) contains mainly cooled lava and is not likely to erupt unless there is a new supply of hot magma.
An active volcano is a volcano that has had at least one eruption in the past 10,000 years.
A volcano is considered inactive or extinct if it has not erupted within historic times (for at least 10,000 years) and its form has changed as a result of weathering and erosion.
The term 'volcano' covers all types of volcano - active (still erupts), dormant (sleeping - could still erupt), extinct (no longer erupts)
an inactive volcano means that the volcano no longer erupts.
hope this helps!
An active volcano means that it still erupts.
An inactive volcano means that it doesn't erupt.
Inactive volcanoes can also be known as extinct (no longer erupt) or dormant (sleeping - but could still erupt)
An active volcano is scientifically proven to be able to spew lava, or simply erupt. An inactive volcano does not erupt and normally stays inactive for about 10 more years before it dies.
Dormant or extinct volcanoes haven't erupted in many years, where active volcanoes have recently reported activity.
dormant volcano is just under of inactive volcano.an inactive volcano that has erupted but it didn't erupt for a long time is a dormant volcano, meaning, it's just sleeping.
Here let me just break it down for ya..
An active means Active
Dormat means sleeping and lazy, just like my ex husband... hope that help
"WhatIS IT CALLED when a Volcano is not active" do you mean? It is known as Extinct or Dormant
dormant
it is active
Its dormant
a dormant volcano is a volcano that has not erupted for a while but is capable of erupting. a intermittent volcano erupts fairly regularly.
A dormant volcano has been "non active for a while but may become active at any time. An intermittent volcano has either been non active for a longer or shorter period but I'm not sure which. They don't have a whole lot of difference.

An active volcano is a volcano that has had at least one eruption during the past 10,000 years. An active volcano might be erupting or dormant. An erupting volcano is an active volcano that is having an eruption... A dormant volcano is an active volcano that is not erupting, but supposed to erupt again.
