Yes. Shield volcanoes are quite large, so en eruption is likely to directly affect only a small part of the volcano at a time. Going near the lava flows is not a good idea, though, as they can be difficult to predict.
Haleakala in Hawaii is a shield volcano. Shield volcanoes are characterized by their gentle sloping sides and widespread lava flows, resulting from low-viscosity magma. This type of volcano typically has relatively quiet eruptions.
An active volcano is a volcano that has had at least one eruption during the past 10,000 years. An active volcano might be erupting or dormant. An erupting volcano is an active volcano that is having an eruption... A dormant volcano is an active volcano that is not erupting, but supposed to erupt again.
Lava is erupting in Hawaii as we breathe that is turning into basalt rock.
A volcano is called a volcano whether it is erupting or not.It is called an active volcano if it is erupting or has erupted recently.It is a dormant volcano if it hasn't erupted in a long time.Extinct volcanoes are not expected to ever erupt again.
no.

Mauna Kea is a shield volcano, which is a type of volcano with gentle sloping sides caused by basaltic lava flows. It is known as a dormant volcano, last erupting about 4,500 years ago.
an erupting volcano?
You've got to be kidding me. A volcano that erupts often is called a cinder cone volcano, a volcano that does not erupt at all is called a shield volcano, and a volcano that can erupt but doesn't is a composite volcano. Here is the chart. Cinder cone: eruption Shield: dead Composite: sleep Hope you use my answer wisely. NOOBS!
an active volcano is a volcano that is erupting or has shown signs of erupting in the near future.
An active volcano is a volcano that has had at least one eruption during the past 10,000 years. An active volcano might be erupting or dormant. An erupting volcano is an active volcano that is having an eruption... A dormant volcano is an active volcano that is not erupting, but supposed to erupt again.
The name of the volcano erupting in Iceland is Eyjafjallajökull
The volcano is erupting as we speak.
Lava is erupting in Hawaii as we breathe that is turning into basalt rock.
