What forms as result of lava that has cooled at the top of a volcano?

A vent


A mountain that forms when layers of lava and ash erupt and build up is a .?

a volcano


What are lava layers in a volcano?

lava layers is layers in side a volcano the color is ushely brown and black


How do you describe a composite volcano?

A composite volcano is composed of many layers of ash and cooled lava flows resulting from sequences of explosive and non-explosive eruptions. The arrangement of these layers can be quite complex.


What is the name of the volcano that is built by thick layer of lava?

A shield volcano. Generally they have runny lava that forms lots of thick layers. The Hawaiian island volcanos are good examples.

What type of volcano forms when layers of basaltic lava accumulate during a nonexplosive eruption?

Cinder Cone


Layers of lava emitted by the volcano?

The different layers of a volcano are made from the lava and ash produced by the volcano. Some volcanoes have different thicknesses of layers or only one type of layer depending on the kind of eruption and how much ash it produces.


How does a volcano gets its shape?

Lava. When the lava comes out of the volcano, gravity pulls the lava down the cone of the volcano, and depending the the viscocity of the lava, it forms a 'cone' or 'shield' as it cools. Thinner lava forms a shield volcano; thicker lava forms a steeper cone shape.


How are the slope of a volcano and the type of lava that forms the volcano related?

the philosophy of the lava supposodely forms from the specific material of the slope
