science is real

Formed by the accumulation

of lava oozing out from the

volcano.

Non-viscous lava can flow

freely, and a broad, slightly

domed structure that

resembles a warrior's shield

• shield volcano

• cinder cone volcano

• composite volcano

• lava dome

Huge, gently sloped

volcanoes. Built by many

layers of low-viscous lava

flows.

• composite volcano

• shield volcano

• cinder cone volcano

This is built from ejected lava

fragments.

They have a steep slope, and

wide crater, and are the most

abundant of the three major

volcanoes.shield volcano

• Stratovolcanoes
• Lava dome volcanoes
• Shield volcanoes
• Cinder cone volcanoes

Forms when volcanic cinder

or blobs of congealed lava of

basaltic composition, come

out from one vent.

• Volcanic cinder cone

• Pyroclastic flow
• Lava tube
• Volcanic crater

This is a large nearly perfect

sloped structure formed from

the alternate solidification of

both lava and pyroclastic

deposits.

• Stratovolcano/Composite volcano

• Lava dome
• Caldera
• Shield volcano

It can have a cluster of vents, with

lava breaking through walls or

issuing from fissures on the

perimeters of the mountain.

Caldera volcanoes are formed

from these volcanoes.
