Where are cinder cones located?
Cinder cone volcanoes are usually found on dry land and in corn fields
Are cinder cones usually found at the edge of large volcanoes?
Yes, although technically, strato-volcanoes *are* cinder cones (composite cones), built up of layers of ash. But the term "cinder cones" (ash cones) is usually applied to smaller cones that form within the vicinity of large volcanic calderas, such as Crater Lake in Oregon. They may be associated with either strato-volcanoes or shield volcanoes.
What 2 types of volcanoes are there?
There are three. From smallest to largest, they are: Cinder Cones, Composite Volcanoes (also called Strata Volcanoes), and then Shield Volcanoes.
Is the shield volcano the smallest?
No. Shield volcanoes are quite large. Cinder cones are the smallest volcanoes.
What are the kinds of cone volcanoes?
The two main types of cone volcanoes are stratovolcanoes and cinder cone volcanoes. Stratovolcanoes are large, steep-sided volcanoes composed of layers of lava flows, ash, and volcanic rocks. Cinder cone volcanoes are smaller, symmetrical volcanoes formed from pyroclastic material ejected during eruptions.

Are cinder cones volcanoes steep?
yes
Are Hawaiian volcanoes cinder cones?
No. The Hawaiian islands are shield volcanoes.

Are cinder cone volcanoes located in the middle of a tectonic plate or at the boundary?
Most volcanoes of any type, including cinder cones, are found at plate boundaries, but some are associated with hot spots.
Do cinder cones erupt silently or explosivley?
Cinder cone volcanoes erupt explosivly.
Do cinder cone volcanoes have granitic magma?
No. Cinder cones are formed by basaltic magma.

Is the shield volcano the smallest?
No. Shield volcanoes are quite large. Cinder cones are the smallest volcanoes.

Shield volcanoes and cinder cones
What kind of volcanoes are there?
There are four main types of volcanoes. These include shield volcanoes, cinder cones, composite volcanoes, and lava domes.
