Explanation:

There are three main types of volcano - composite or strato, shield and dome. Composite volcanoes, sometimes known as strato volcanoes, are steep sided cones formed from layers of ash and [lava] flows. The eruptions from these volcanoes may be a pyroclastic flow rather than a flow of lava.

Answer:Hey friend here is your answer.Explanation:There are three main types of volcano - composite or strato, shield and dome.

1. Composite volcanoes, sometimes known as strato volcanoes, are steep sided cones formed from layers of ash and lava flows.

2. Shield volcanoes are low with gently sloping sides and are formed from layers of lava. Eruptions are typically non-explosive. Shield volcanoes produce fast flowing fluid lava that can flow for many miles.

3. Dome volcanoes have much steeper sides than shield volcanoes. This is because the lava is thick and sticky. It cannot flow very far before ot cools and hardens. HOPE IT WILL HELP
