Cinder cones are not made from lava flows. They are made of fragments of righ that have piled up and rest at their angle of repose.
What else can I help you with?
Which type of volcano is small with steep sides?
Cinder cone
What is a small volcanic mountain wih a narrow base and steep sides?
A volcanic mountain with a narrow base and steep sides is typically called a volcanic cone or a cinder cone. These cones are formed from explosive eruptions that eject mostly tephra and volcanic ash, resulting in their characteristic steep shape.
Why does a cinder cone volcanoes have such steep sides?
when lava flows down it the lava that stayed on it gets hard
What type of volcano has broad bases and summits with steep sides?
Cinder cone volcanos have steep sides and broadd bases.They are formed by explosive eruptions that are followed by lava outpourings.
What is a steep side?
A volcanic cinder cone.
Would a cinder cone volcano have a broad flat cone and gently sloping sides?
No, cinder cone volcanoes typically have steep sides due to the accumulation of loose volcanic material, such as cinder and ash, that build up around the vent. As a result, they tend to have a steeper profile compared to other types of volcanoes.
What are the 3 kinds of volcanoes?
The three main types of volcanoes are shield volcanoes, stratovolcanoes (composite volcanoes), and cinder cone volcanoes. Shield volcanoes have gently sloping sides and are formed by layers of lava flows. Stratovolcanoes are characterized by steep sides and explosive eruptions. Cinder cone volcanoes are small, steep-sided volcanoes built from explosive eruptions that eject fragmented rock.
What is a steep-sided volcano of lava and tephra called?
A steep-sided volcano of lava and tephra is called a stratovolcano. Stratovolcanoes are characterized by their tall, conical shape and explosive eruptions caused by the buildup of pressure from gases and molten rock beneath the surface.
A smaller volcano with steep slopes?
A cinder cone volcano.
A steep-sided volcano formed entirely of ash and cinders is a?
A Stratovolcano is a steep volcano made mostly of layers of ash, lava and cinders. Stratovolcanoes have a tendency to be very explosive and produce significant quantities of ash.
What type of volcano forms a relatively small steep sided cone?
Cinder Cone Volcano
What is Steep sided volcano made of tephra?
cinder cone volcano
