Mount Vesuvius is a stratovolcano, a volcanic mountain shaped like a cone. It can also be called a composite volcano. Stratovolcanos are built from layers of volcanic ash and rock fragments.
Tambora was a composite cone.
No. Mount Tambora is in the shape of a caldera form from a stratovolcano.
Mount Kenya is neither a composite cone, cinder cone, nor a shield cone. It is a complex stratovolcano made up of layers of lava and ash.
Mount Fuji is a stratovolcano, which is a composite volcano formed by both lava flows and explosive eruptions. It is not a cinder cone or shield volcano.
Mount Aso is a composite cone volcano, also known as a stratovolcano. It is characterized by its steep-sided profile and alternating layers of lava and volcanic ash.

Mount Tambora is in the Indonesian archipelago.
The Pompeii volcano is not a shield volcano or a cinder cone; it is classified as a stratovolcano. Stratovolcanoes, also known as composite volcanoes, are characterized by steep sides and explosive eruptions due to the combination of lava flows and ash. The eruption of Mount Vesuvius in Pompeii in 79 AD buried the Roman city under layers of ash and pumice.
It is a composite volcano.
Composite
Mount Tambora is not a shield volcano; it is a stratovolcano. Stratovolcanoes are characterized by steep slopes and a symmetrical shape due to their alternating layers of lava, ash, and other volcanic materials. Shield volcanoes, on the other hand, have gentle slopes and wide bases formed by successive layers of flowing lava.
