shield volcanoes have cinders that come out then land on it. that's what makes them bigger than cinder cone volcanoes.

Because the material is so viscous or consolidated. This is quite unlike a shield volcano which emits low viscosity lava that easily flows.....

∙ 9y agoCinder cone volcanoes are not composed of lava flows as shield volcanoes are, but are made of piles of cinders that fell after being ejected into the air. These form slopes at the angle of repose.

∙ 12y agoBecause of climate change that when it is hot cinder cone will have a steep slope but when it is cold cinder cone volcanoes will have slippery slopes like
This was most likely what happened in some particular places like lowlands and highlands areas

∙ 12y agoThe way a volcano is being formed, depends on the type of lava. Cinder cone volcanoes is made from andesitic lava. This type of lava is especially thick, and therefore is won't be able to ''run'' very far from the volcano. In this way, each time a cinder cone volcano erupts, it will create a new layer of lava, making the volcano higher and higher each time, but it will not increase its base area very much.
It's different with shield volcanoes. They are made from another kind of lava which will advance very far from it's vent. Therefore the shield volcano won't often be very tall, but it can have a very large base area

What does a cinder cone look like?
A cinder cone volcano is steep-sided with slopes made of small, jagged rocks that are usually dark in color.
What is a steep-sided volcano of lava and tephra called?
Cinder cone volcanoes are the most common type. They have steep sides formed from falling ash and cinders following an eruption.
Why is the cinder cone volcano called the cinder cone volcano?
It isn't. Mount Pelee is a stratovolcano due to its large size, steep slopes, and abundance of ash.
Are cinder cone volcanoes similar or different from Shield and stratovolcanoes?
There are similarities and differences. Cinder cones are generally much smaller than shield volcanoes or stratovolcanoes. Like shield volcanoes, they primarily erupt basaltic lava. However, like stratovolcanoes they have steep slopes and are composed of material that has erupted into the air and been welded together.
What color is the lava of cinder cone volcanoes?
The color of cinder cone volcanoes is a blackish-gray.
A smaller volcano with steep slopes?
A cinder cone volcano.
What does a cinder cone look like?
A cinder cone volcano is steep-sided with slopes made of small, jagged rocks that are usually dark in color.
A smaller volcano with steep slopes. A volcanic cone built entirely of loose fragmented material?
Cinder cone
What is a steep-sided volcano of lava and tephra called?

What is a small volcanic mountain wih a narrow base and steep sides?
a cinder cone volcano
Why is the cinder cone volcano called the cinder cone volcano?
It isn't. Mount Pelee is a stratovolcano due to its large size, steep slopes, and abundance of ash.
How is a cinder cone volcano different from a hot spot volcano?
A hot spot volcano is a volcano is one that forms as a result of an extra hot area of the mantle just beneath the crust. Such volcanoes are often far from plate boundaries. A cinder cone volcano is a relatively small volcano with steep slopes made of cinders. The two are not mutually exclusive: some cinder cone volcanoes are associated with hot spots.
Why does a cinder cone volcanoes have such steep sides?
when lava flows down it the lava that stayed on it gets hard

What color is the lava of cinder cone volcanoes?
The color of cinder cone volcanoes is a blackish-gray.
What are three types of volcanoes?
Three types of volcanoes are Cinder Cone Volcanoes, Shield Volcanoes and Composite Volcanoes.
When ash cinders and bombs build up in a steep pile around a volcanoes the result is?
The result is a cinder cone.
