What type of volcano is most likely to be found near a subduction zone?
composite cone
What type of volcano is most likely to form when magma is high in silica?
Lava high in silica (granitic lava) tends to be thick and viscous, so the volcano is likely to be composite rather than shield.
What type of volcano most likely to form over oceanic hot spot?
A shield volcano.
What type of volano is Mount St Helens a shield or composite?
Mount St. Helens is an active stratovolcano. Composite Cone volcano - APEX
What type of volcano is most likely to form fluid lava?
B.an explo eruption

Excavation of the area reveals alternating layers of ash and lava flows The volcano was most likely of which volcanic variety?
This is a stratovolcano, also known as a composite volcano.
What kind of eruption form composite cone volcano?
Composite volcanoes are highly variable in what they erupt. Most often, eruptions will release clouds of ash, pumice, and rock fragments. In some cases they fountain or extrude lava.
How does a caldera forms?
A caldera is a large depression in a volcano. Most calderas form in one of two ways: by collapse of the top of a composite volcano after the magma chamber is drained.

Mount St. Helens is an active stratovolcano. Composite Cone volcano - APEX
What type of volcano is most likely to form fluid lava?
B.an explo eruption
What type of volcano appears most in the news?
The type of volcano appears most in the news are composite and cinder cone
A volcano formed over time from thousands of lava eruptions that deposit layer after layer of new crust?
A composite volcano is formed over time from thousands of lava eruptions that form layer after layer of new crust. These composite volcanoes are the most prevalent type of volcano.
What type of volcano are most volcanoes?
Composite or Strato Volcanoes.
Mayon volcano is what type of volcano?
Mount Mayon, the Phillipines, is a stratovolcano, or a composite volcano. The lava erupted has a high silica content and high viscosity, and is mainly andesitic. Mount Mayon is categorised as active, and is viewed as a 'perfect volcano' due to the symmetry of sides.
