What are the 3 types of valcanoes?
There are four basic types of volcanos. They are cinder cones, shield volcanoes, composite volcanoes, and lava domes. Composite volcanoes share some characteristics of all the others.
What are things that cinder cone and composite volcanoes have incommon?
They're all volcanoes..., they are both formed by plates overlapping or clashing together
What are the three different volcanoes?
The three different types of volcanoes include the following; shield volcanoes, composite volcanoes, and the cinder cone volcanoes. These all have their names because of the size and shape of the out rocks of the actual volcano itself.
What kind of volcano is icelandic volcano?
There are many volcanoes in Iceland in all three of the basic categories of shield volcanoes, cinder cones, and stratovolcanoes.
What are all kinds of volcanoes?
The main types of volcanoes are stratovolcanoes (composite volcanoes), shield volcanoes, cinder cone volcanoes, and lava dome volcanoes. Stratovolcanoes have steep slopes due to the alternating layers of lava flows, ash, and other volcanic debris. Shield volcanoes have gentle slopes due to the low-viscosity lava flows. Cinder cone volcanoes are small and steep-sided, formed from explosive eruptions. Lava dome volcanoes are formed from slow, viscous lava flows piling up near the vent.
Compare and contrast composite and cinder cone volcanoes?
Cinder volcanoes have more of funnel shape with a crater like top while a composite volcano simply has an opening at the tip where the lava comes out.
Are hawaiian islands cinder cone volcanoes?
The Hawaiian volcanoes can form cinder cones, however the type of volcano they are classified as is shield volcano due to their broad sloping sides and the ability for their lava to flow.No. The Hawaiian islands are shield volcanoes.
Do cinder cone volcanoes create life underneath them?
They could, but it really doesn't happen all that often.
What are tyes of volcanoes?
There are three main types of volcanoes: shield volcanoes, cinder cone volcanoes, and stratovolcanoes. Shield volcanoes have gentle slopes and are formed by thin lava flows. Cinder cone volcanoes are made up of pyroclastic material, such as ash and rock fragments. Stratovolcanoes are large, steep-sided volcanoes that erupt a mixture of lava flows and explosive eruptions.
Are the volcanoes in the ring of fire stratovolcanoes?
Many of them are, but not all. The Ring of Fire also includes some shield and cinder cone volcanoes. There are also several complex volcanoes that do not fit neatly into the three main categories.
How are cinder cone volcanoes good for the envionment?
because when they erupt they burn everything and then they will help the re-growth of all thing bigger and greener.
Are shield volcanoes and volcanoes the same?
No, shield volcanoes are a specific type of volcano characterized by their broad, gentle slopes and low viscosity lava flows. "Volcano" is a general term that refers to any landform where volcanic activity occurs, encompassing a variety of volcano types such as shield, composite, and cinder cone volcanoes.
