Mount Edgecumbe is a dormant volcano located at the southern end of Kruzof Island, Alaska.
Active, dormant, and extinct.
It is hard to say really. First there are 3 qualifications of a volcano's activity. Active: The volcano is erupting or is showing signs of erupting. Dormant: The volcano is not erupting or showing any activity but should start again. Extinct: The Volcano has not erupted in the last 10000 or more years, and is not expected to show any active signs in the future. Olympus Mons is the largest volcano in the Solar System, and is located on Mars. Most scientists believe that the volcano is extinct and will remain extinct for millions of years. Some scientists are now considering the possibility that the volcano is not dead but merely dormant. Proof of this is that there are evidence of ancient lava flows that should have been wiped out my meteorite impact.
The three stages of a volcano are: 1) precursory stage, where signs like earthquakes and ground deformation occur, indicating magma movement beneath the surface, 2) eruptive stage, where the volcano releases ash, lava, and gases, and 3) post-eruptive stage, where the volcano gradually becomes dormant again.
The phases of a volcano include: 1) Dormant phase where there is no activity, 2) Active phase where there is regular eruptions of lava and other volcanic materials, and 3) Extinct phase where the volcano is no longer active and unlikely to erupt again.
Mt Kenya is considered an extinct volcano. It last erupted over 3 million years ago. Today, it is a dormant volcano, with no recorded historical eruptions.
Dormant- not active.

active- or live volcano is one that is erupting or has shown signs that it may erupt in the near future dormant- volcano to awaken in the future and become active extinct- or dead volcano is unlikely to erupt again

#1. Active Stage #2. Dormant Stage #3. Extinct Stage Active Volcano: A volcano that is erupting. Also, a volcano that is not presently erupting, but that has erupted within historical time and is considered likely to do so in the future. Dormant Volcano: Literally, "sleeping." The term is used to describe a volcano which is presently inactive but which may erupt again. Most of the major Cascade volcanoes are believed to be dormant rather than extinct. Extinct Volcano: A volcano that is not presently erupting and is not likely to do so for a very long time in the future

According to the Japan Meteorological Agency, there are 108 active volcanoes in Japan. "Active" is defined as any volcano that emits gas and/or has erupted in the last 10,000 years. The JMA is currently monitoring about 30 of them. There are about 36 active volcanoes in Japan. Remember ACTIVE!
