How can you tell if a layer of composite cone was formed by quiet eruption or explosive eruption?
A layer of composite cone formed by quiet eruption will have alternating layers of ash and lava flows, with gentle slopes. In contrast, a layer formed by explosive eruption will have predominantly pyroclastic materials like ash and pumice, with steep slopes and a more jagged appearance due to the explosive nature of the eruptions.
WHERE DO LANDSLIDE OCCURS?

How does magma composition and the resulting eruption affect the form of a volcano?
If the composition of the magma is high in silica, the eruption will be explosive. The Eruption of Mt. St. Helens was an explosive eruption. If the composition of the magma is low in silica, it will produce a quiet eruption. The eruption(s) of Mt. Kilauea are quiet eruptions.
Does granite form gentle slopes?
No. Granites is very resistant to weathering. it will often form very steep slopes and sheer cliffs.
What are the similarities and differences between the types of volcanoes?
Shield volcanoes have fluid basaltic flows that are lower in silicates, making the lava very fluid without a tendency to form pyroclastics. Composite Cone volcanoes contain the highest percentage of silica content making the magma thicker with the greatest tendency to form pyroclastics and are the most dangerous volcanoes.
How are majestic peaks and steep slopes produced?
Uplifting
Definition of the slope of a volcano?
The slope of a volcano refers to the steepness of its sides, usually measured in degrees or as a ratio of vertical elevation to horizontal distance. Steep slopes can be indicative of a more explosive eruption potential, while gentle slopes often result in less violent eruptions. The slope of a volcano can have implications for the speed and direction of lava flows during an eruption.
A steep tall volcano that can sometimes rise as high as 10000 feet an eruption from this type of a volcano is violent?
strato volcano
What are precipitous slopes?
Slopes that are dangerously high and/or steep.
Why do some stairs have steep slopes?
Usually, stairs are built with steep slopes only if there isn't enough room to build them with milder slopes.
What surroundes a fjord?
steep slopes
A high uplifted area with steep slopes?
A mountain is a high, uplifted area with steep slopes. Mountains are large elevated area that rises from level ground. They are large and steep hills.
How can you tell if a layer of composite cone was formed by quiet eruption or explosive eruption?
A layer of composite cone formed by quiet eruption will have alternating layers of ash and lava flows, with gentle slopes. In contrast, a layer formed by explosive eruption will have predominantly pyroclastic materials like ash and pumice, with steep slopes and a more jagged appearance due to the explosive nature of the eruptions.
What is bathmophobia?
fear of stairs or steep slopes
Do most mountains have slopes?
Most mountains have slopes, but some aren't very steep.
What are broad platforms cut into steep slopes used for planting crops?
Broad platforms cut into steep slopes used for planting crops are terraces.
What is a High uplifted area with steep slopes?
its a plateau
