A shield volcano is usually comprised almost entirely of fluid magma flows. Cone volcanoes are the result of pyroclastic materials building up around a volcanic vent.
I believe that exoskeletons are made of the same material as our own fingernails and hair, just compacted together.
Strands of genetic material floating in the nucleus are referred to as chromosomes. Chromosomes are made up of DNA and carry the genetic information necessary for an organism's development and function.
Its horn is made up of a material called Keratin, our nails are also made up of this substance only.
No, cellulose is not a living material. It is a complex carbohydrate that makes up the cell walls of plants and is produced by living organisms, but once it is formed, it is not considered to be living.
A rhinoceros' tusks are made of keratin, which is the same material that makes up human hair and nails. They are not made of ivory, which is found in the tusks of elephants and other animals.
Mount Kenya is neither a composite cone, cinder cone, nor a shield cone. It is a complex stratovolcano made up of layers of lava and ash.
A sheild cone is volcano that is sorta flat and gently sloping up.
The cone of a volcano is the mountain of erupted material that makes up much of the visible part of the volcano.The cone of a mountain is a the pile of material around a volcanic event formed from precious eruptions. The cone may consist of tephra, cooled lava flows, or a combination of both.
Cinder cones are the mountainous structure built up by some volcanoes. Most of the material that makes up the cone is ash and cinders expelled from the top of the cone.
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.
Both cinder cone and shield volcanoes are primarily composed of basaltic lava flows. However, cinder cone volcanoes are characterized by steep slopes, smaller size, and built up from pyroclastic material like ash and cinders, while shield volcanoes are much larger with gentle slopes built from numerous lava flows.
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.
The three types of volcanoes are shield volcanoes, stratovolcanoes (composite volcanoes), and cinder cone volcanoes. Shield volcanoes have gentle slopes and are formed by lava flows, stratovolcanoes are tall, steep-sided volcanoes built up by layers of hardened lava, rock, and ash, and cinder cone volcanoes are relatively small, steep-sided volcanoes made of pyroclastic material.
Cinder cone
Mauna Loa is a shield volcano. It is one of the largest in the world and is characterized by its gentle sloping sides built up from numerous lava flows. Shield volcanoes are primarily composed of basaltic lava.
No. Shield volcanoes have gentle slopes composed almost entirely of cooled lava flows.
shield volcanoes have cinders that come out then land on it. that's what makes them bigger than cinder cone volcanoes.
