What type of flow does mt st helens have?
Mount St. Helens has produced lava flows in the past. However, the famous eruption in 1980 produced something much more dangerous: pyroclastic flows. These are avalanche-like currents of hot ash, rock, and gas that race out of a volcano. The initial pyroclastic flow from the lateral blast may have briefly been supersonic.
What type of lava flow did mt st helens have?
The 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens did not produce lava flows. It was a plinian eruption that produced aolumn of ash and pyroclastic flows. Pyroclastic flows are avalanche-like masses of hot ash, rock, and gas that rase away from an erupting volcano at speeds that can reachinto the hundreds of miles per hour.

true. Arteries have halves that allow for blood flow away form the heard but not toward the heart.
Why is it easier for people to keep safe from a volcano eruption that from an earthquake?
Since a volcano eruption happens and starts at one place, lava and pyroclastic flow has to flow outwards from the volcano, therefore making it easier for people to fun away from it like they're being chased. But an earthquake usually shakes a large area, destroying all the roads in the area, so it would take longer to leave the affected area, one of the reasons being the fact that roads are destroyed.
