because japans volcanoes explode. So therefore, the magma does not flow down the volcano making it flat and smooth.
These are called composhit volcanoes or stratovolcanoes.
No. Shield volcanoes have gentle slopes composed almost entirely of cooled lava flows.
The three main types of volcanoes are shield volcanoes, stratovolcanoes (or composite volcanoes), and cinder cone volcanoes. Shield volcanoes have broad, gentle slopes and are primarily built up by low-viscosity basaltic lava flows. Stratovolcanoes are characterized by their steep, conical shapes and are formed from alternating layers of lava, ash, and other volcanic debris. Cinder cone volcanoes are the smallest type, featuring steep slopes formed from the accumulation of volcanic ash, cinders, and small lava fragments.
Slopes that are dangerously high and/or steep.
Usually, stairs are built with steep slopes only if there isn't enough room to build them with milder slopes.
Shield volcanoes have fluid basaltic flows that are lower in silicates, making the lava very fluid without a tendency to form pyroclastics. Composite Cone volcanoes contain the highest percentage of silica content making the magma thicker with the greatest tendency to form pyroclastics and are the most dangerous volcanoes.
The three major types of volcanoes are shield volcanoes, stratovolcanoes (composite volcanoes), and cinder cone volcanoes. Shield volcanoes have gentle slopes and are formed by low-viscosity lava flows, stratovolcanoes are steep-sided and composed of layers of lava and ash, and cinder cone volcanoes are small, steep-sided cones made of pyroclastic material.
These volcanoes are called stratovolcanoes or composite volcanoes. They are characterized by their steep slopes and alternating layers of cinders, ash, and lava flows, typically made of basaltic and andesitic compositions.
The Aleutian Islands have both stratovolcanoes, characterized by steep slopes and explosive eruptions due to viscous magma, and shield volcanoes, which have gentle slopes and fluid lava. These volcanoes are part of the Ring of Fire, a region known for its high volcanic activity.
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.
steep slopes
A mountain is a high, uplifted area with steep slopes. Mountains are large elevated area that rises from level ground. They are large and steep hills.
