The Philippines means "island built on fire" and is man made. The island was made by throwing ice taken on large longboats from the Antarctic and throwing ice into molten lava to make rock. Unfortunately they left some holes and this is now the volcanoes. They spurt lava and ash, happily reminding the Filipino people of their humble beginnings.
For now the current list of inactive volcanoes are 355
The Philippines is part of the "Pacific Ring of Fire" that is an enormous circular ring that that includes volcanoes in the Andes, the Cascades, Alaska, Japan, the Philippines. Indonesia, Papua New Guinea and New Zealand. This is an area of tectonic plate boundaries that has volcanic activity and earthquakes. Subduction plate boundaries force magma to the surface resulting in Volcanic activity. The Pacific Ring of Fire accounts for about 68% of Earth's volcanoes.
Some examples of cinder cone volcanoes in the Philippines include Mount Malindig on the island of Marinduque and Mount San Carlos in Negros Occidental. These volcanoes are characterized by their steep sides and typically smaller size compared to other types of volcanoes.
The planet Earth has the most active volcanoes.Mars had the largest volcano known in the solar systemVenus had the most volcanoes.Io a moon of Jupiter has the most active volcanoes in the Solar System, with over 400.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Earth has the most active volcanoes where as Mars has the biggest volcanoe in the universe but the planet which has the most volcanoes would be Venus.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------A difficult question as it depends on whether you include active, inactive or dormant.Including all of them, then Venus, followed by Earth and then Mars.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Forgetting planets, then Io a moon of Jupiter is the most active volcanic body in our Solar System with over 400 known active volcanoes.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Very easy answer . . . Venus has perhaps up to a million volcanoes. For sure it has more than 100,000 volcanoes - we cannot yet tell how many of these are active, or temporarily dormant.
Some cinder cone volcanoes in the Philippines are Musuan, or Calayao Volcano, and Mayon Volcano.
Their are about 37 volcanoes in the Philippines.
what are the examples of inactive and active volcanoes?
There are 22 active volcanoes in the Philippines.

There are 22 active volcanoes in the Philippines
In the survey of 2012, there were 23 volcanoes in the Philippines considered as active.
There are no active volcanoes in Philadelphia, any philharmonic orchestra or called Phil
Because the Philippines is in the location of the RING OF FIRE

The Philippines is located along the Pacific Ring of Fire, which is a area with a lot of tectonic activity. This leads to the presence of numerous active volcanoes in the country. The volcanoes are distributed along the major tectonic plate boundaries in the Philippines, such as the Philippine Sea Plate and the Eurasian Plate, resulting in a high concentration of active volcanoes.
