Which type of volcano forms a large cone-shaped mountain from alternating layers of lava flow and volcanic ash?
A volcano that forms very large lava flows and builds itself up that way is known as a shield volcano. This type of volcano may not always erupt from a central summit vent but can have satellite vents (Rift Zones) that will form long channels of lava flows going down the slopes. These volcanoes are often times known as erupting in a very placid style and although can have explosive eruptions are very very rare. A volcano of this type would be either KIlauea or Mauna Loa on the big island of Hawaii.
