What is the difference between a cinder cone volcano and a composite cone volcano?

Answer 1

cinder cone volcanoes are much smaller and grow in

clusters they also naturally contain no lava

composite volcanoes are large and cone shaped but you can rarely find

two very close together the lava in composite volcanoes is high in

silica and makes it thick and pasty which can clog up vents and cause

very violent eruptions

HOPE THIS HELPS!!:)

Answer 2

A cinder cone volcano is typically smaller, with steep sides made up of explosive eruptions that create cinder and ash. A composite cone volcano, also known as a stratovolcano, is larger and has alternating layers of ash, lava flows, and volcanic rocks due to both explosive and effusive eruptions.

Answer 3

Shield Volcanoes = Slow flow of lava,very wide and long

Answer 4

A shield volcano has broad, gently sloping sides composed of many layers of cooled lava flows. A cinder cone is much smaller with steep slopes made of chunks of rock called cinders.
