Explanation:
Volcanoes are mountains but they are very different from other mountains; they are not formed by folding and crumpling or by uplift and erosion. A volcano is most commonly a conical hill or mountain built around a vent that connects with reservoirs of molten rock below the surface of the Earth.
Examples :-
- Vesuvius
- Kilimanjaro
- Mount Fuji
- and shield volcanoes

Types :-
- composite or strato
- shield
- dome
- cinder cones
