INTRODUCTION
There are at least three types of volcanoes, shield volcano and cinder cone volcanoes and composite volcanoes they get there names by the way they are shaped and what they are made of. Volcanoes are awesome manifestations of the fiery power entrained deep within the earth these formations are essential vents on the earth surface where molten rock debris and gases from the are emitted.
VOLCANOES PARTS
Magma. Magma chamber. Crater. Layers of ash and lava. Main vent. Secondary cone. Lava.
CALDERA
We live in a caldera
volcano. The edge of the
caldera is the gondolas.
The volcano doesn't erupt very much of the time - luckily
They erupt in different ways and different
times.The cone shape is the
composite.They have a small crater
in the middle.They are very tall.
Composite or strato volcanoes have both
tempura and lava material
erupt from it. The materials layer them
selves.
Composite volcano
CompoundA volcano that has two or more vents on a volcano that has an associated volcanic dome ether in its crater or on its flanks .For Example Vesuvius and Mount Pelee. A compound is 2 volcanoes together.
SHIELD
This volcano is a flat volcano. For example it leaks lava
down the side of the volcano. The volcano doesn't explode
