No. it is a caldera and s supervolcano. A shield volcano is characterized by basaltic lava and effusive eruptions with little to no explosive character.
Yellowstone produces rhyolytic lava and extremely explosive eruptions.
Composite volcanoes are bigger than cinder cone volcanoes, but not shield volcanoes. With the possible exception of the Yellowstone Caldera, the largest volcanoe on earth is Mauna Loa, a shild volcano that makes up most of the island of Hawaii. The largest known volcano anywhere is Olympus Mons, a shield volcano on Mars.
Paricutin is a cinder cone volcano.
Mount Parícutin is a cinder cone volcano, not a composite shield volcano. It formed through a single eruption in 1943 and is made up mainly of pyroclastic material such as ash, cinders, and lava flows, typical of cinder cone volcanoes.
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.
I just has a project on this the answer is composite! :D
