Do shield or composite or cinder cone or caldera volcanoes have alternate layers of ash and lava?

Answer 1

Composite VolcanoesComposite Volcanoes. Composite volcanoes are tall, cone shaped mountains in which alternate layers of lava alternate with layers of ash. This happens when smooth lava flows alternate with explosive eruptions of lava fragments.

Answer 2

they are all different types of volcanoes. A shield volcano generally erupts low viscosity lava with a low silica content. Eruptions are generally not explosive. Such volcanoes are characterized by broad, gentle slopes.
A composite volcano or stratovolcano is composed of layers of ash and lava flows. Such volcanoes tend to erupt higher viscosity material with a higher silica content. Eruptions are often explosive, producing plumes of ash, gas, and pumice instead of lava flows. They arch characterized by steep slopes.

Answer 3

Composite volcanoes and shield volcanoes have alternate layers of lava and ash, as they are formed by different eruptions during their cycle. Cinder cone volcanoes do not typically have distinct layers of ash and lava, as they are formed from explosive eruptions that mainly eject cinders and not necessarily distinct layers. Caldera volcanoes, which are formed by the collapse of a volcano after a major eruption, may have layers of ash and lava from previous eruptions preserved in the caldera walls but not necessarily in a well-defined pattern.

Answer 4

Composite volcanoes are tall, cone-shaped mountains which have layers of lava which alternate with layers of ash.
