What is doormant as in a volcano type?
Doormant means when the volcano can erupt again but at the moment it seems very still, as if it is sleeping.
How is a volcanic neck formed?
A volcanic neck forms when magma solidifies in the vent of a volcano, after the solidification the volcano goes either dormant for an extended period of time or goes extinct. During this period of quiescence the ash around the vent erodes away as well as all the other light material leaving only the spine that was the plug in the vent. This will last the longest as it is very densely solidified magma versus a loose conglomerate of ash on the flanks of the volcano.
What is the eruption type for Yellowstone vocano?
A super eruption because the volcano underneath Yellowstone is a supervolcano. it is going to be a very very very very very very big eruption basicly you will die if it goes off so yeh run like hell!!!!!!
How does erosion affect how fast a coastline erodes?
Well, since sand is already very eroded rock a coastline would probably be affected more if the coast was rocky. The type of rock also would affect the rate of erosion. Sedimentary rock erodes faster than igneous and metamorphic im pretty sure. hope it helps.
What is the slope for the shield volcano?
A shield volcano has very broad, gentle slopes.
What type of eruption does the redoubt volcano produce?
very violent

Which type of stone will most likely show the greatest amount of weathering?
i think its granite Above answer is wrong! Granite is VERY hard and weathers slowly. SANDSTONE is very soft and permeable and weathers (erodes) very quickly.
Which type of volcano forms a large cone-shaped mountain from alternating layers of lava flow and volcanic ash?
A volcano that forms very large lava flows and builds itself up that way is known as a shield volcano. This type of volcano may not always erupt from a central summit vent but can have satellite vents (Rift Zones) that will form long channels of lava flows going down the slopes. These volcanoes are often times known as erupting in a very placid style and although can have explosive eruptions are very very rare. A volcano of this type would be either KIlauea or Mauna Loa on the big island of hawaii.
What type quick bread are crepes?
They are a type of very thin French pancake rather than bread.

Magma is launched from a volcano eruption It cools very rapidly on contact with air What type of rock could it form?
Any type of Igneous rock.
What kind of volcano erode very quickly?
composite volcano
What type of volcano is Popocatépetl?
It is a stratovolcano, such as the Mount Rainier in Washington state or Mt. Fuji in Japan. This means its lava is very thick and slow but it has pyroclastic flows (huge clouds of incandescent ash and debris) which are very dangerous to the populations close to the volcano.
Why do cinder cone volcanoes have narrower bases and steeper sides then shield volcanoes do?
The way a volcano is being formed, depends on the type of lava. Cinder cone volcanoes is made from andesitic lava. This type of lava is especially thick, and therefore is won't be able to ''run'' very far from the volcano. In this way, each time a cinder cone volcano erupts, it will create a new layer of lava, making the volcano higher and higher each time, but it will not increase its base area very much. It's different with shield volcanoes. They are made from another kind of lava which will advance very far from it's vent. Therefore the shield volcano won't often be very tall, but it can have a very large base area
What is the difference between composite volcano and cinder volcano?
A shield volcano is made from lava flows that flow far, making a very wide, not very steep mountain. A cinder cone volcano is the most common type of volcano. It is formed from volcanic fragments and is very steep sided, although not always extremely tall. They usually have just one main vent, and can also sometimes form from a vent of a larger volcano, growing and becoming a whole new volcano. Composite volcanoes resemble very large cinder cone volcanoes at first, but have bigger particles making them up usually and also have multiple vents more often. They also are potentially more explosive.
