There are three types of volcanoes:

Active volcanoe: A volcanoe that can erupt at any time.

Dormant volcanoes: These are the volcanoes that had erupted long ago eg a period of 100 years. These can erupt at any time.They are also known as sleeping volcanoes.

Extinct volcanoe: These are those that scientists are unlikely to erupt again as they no longer have a lava supply.

It is difficult to differentiate between dormant and extinct volcanoes.
