2. Name two different types of volcanic eruptions.
3. What are composite cones?
4. How is a crater formed?​

Answer 1

There are two types of eruptions in terms of activity, explosive eruptions and effusive eruptions. Explosive eruptions are characterized by gas-driven explosions that propels magma and tephra. Effusive eruptions, meanwhile, are characterized by the outpouring of lava without significant explosive eruption.Jul

Name two different types of volcanic eruptions.

explosive eruptions and effusive eruptions.

What are composite cones?

volcanic cone composed of intermingled masses or alternate layers of lava and fragmental material.

How is a crater formed?

Craters are formed by the outward explosion of rocks and other materials from a volcano. Calderas are formed by the inward collapse of a volcano's magma chamber. Craters are usually much smaller features than calderas, and calderas are sometimes considered giant craters
