Measured from its base, the tallest would be Mauna Kea in Hawaii, which like the adjacent Mauna Loa has a deep seafloor base on the Hawaiian hotspot.
However the volcano Llullaillaco is the highest active volcano above sea level. It is an Andean stratovolcano on the border of Argentina and Chile. It was active as late as 1877. It is located about 200 km (120 miles) north of the "highest volcano", Ojos de Salado.
Nevado Ojos del Salado ("snow-covered salty eyes") is a stratovolcano in the Andes mountains, about 600 km (370 miles) north of Aconcagua, the highest mountain in the Americas. Ojos de Salado is 6893 meters (22,615 ft) in height. However, it has not been active since approximately 700 AD.
I realy don't know, but it would definitely be a relatively recent and young volcanic mountain, that is still in its early and highly eruptive stage.
there are no known valcanoes in iraq
Iraq experiences earthquakes but does not have any volcanoes.
Not necessarily. Shield volcanoes are volcanoes, but not all volcanoes are shield volcanoes.
Regardless of how well stuck together the Earth's surface may seem on the surface, it actually consists of several different slabs. Volcanoes and earth quakes occur along the lines where one plate rubs up against another. One such boundary runs through/underneath Italy, another Japan. But Iraq is well way from any boundary zone, so it doesn't see any volcanic activity.

Three types of volcanoes are Cinder Cone Volcanoes, Shield Volcanoes and Composite Volcanoes.

there are three and they are Active Volcanoes, Dormant Volcanoes, and Extinct Volcanoes.
No, volcanoes do not need lava to be volcanoes.
Three types of volcanoes are Cinder Cone Volcanoes, Shield Volcanoes and Composite Volcanoes.
There are three. From smallest to largest, they are: Cinder Cones, Composite Volcanoes (also called Strata Volcanoes), and then Shield Volcanoes.
There are three different types of volcanoes. The types of volcanoes are shield volcanoes, dome volcanoes, and also composite volcanoes.
Land Volcanoes eat lamas and underwater volcanoes eat camals
Volcanoes have magma.
