A composite mountain is a mountain that points straight up. For example, Mt. St. Helen. Before the mountain split!
A mountain range formed due to terrane accretion is known as a composite mountain range. This type of mountain range is formed when different land masses or terranes are added to the edge of a continent through tectonic processes, leading to the uplift and formation of mountains. Examples of composite mountain ranges include the Alps in Europe and the Sierra Nevada in North America.
The type of mountain where magma breaks the surface is a volcano. Their are three types of volcanos, composite, shield, and cinder cones.
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.
Convergent boundaries are found where tectonic plates collide. They occur primarily along the edges of continents and island arcs, leading to subduction zones or mountain building. Examples include the West Coast of the United States and the Andes Mountains in South America.
The Eyjafjallajokull Volcano is a composite volcano, also known as a stratovolcano. Composite volcanoes are characterized by their steep slopes and violent eruptions due to the combination of explosive eruptions and lava flows.
yes Mt Pinatubo is a composite volcano
Composite Volcanoes!

Composite Volcanoes!
No. The Yellowstone volcano is neither a mountain nor a composite volcano; it is a caldera.
Mount Vesuvius is a Composite (Stratovolcano)
No. Yellowstone holds several calderas, but no volcanic mountain.
None of the above, it is a mountain not a volcano.
A Composite Volcanic mountain, or volcano, is very tall. Taller than shield and cinder cone. Professor, M. Moody

A mountain formed by the build up of lava and ash is a composite volcanic cone.
Rocky Mountain College's 2014 25th-75th percentile ACT Composite Scores are 20-25, meaning 25% of students scored 20 or lower on the ACT Composite Score, and 75% of students scored 25 or lower (i.e. 25% of students scored 25 or higher).
