Volcanoes! BOOOOOOM!
Author : AADI KAPIL
Volcanoes the massive mountains that have watery super hot fire and fire rocks. That's what I thought when I first saw them. Yes they are extremely dangerous. The largest volcano in the world is Mauna Loa. There are three types of volcanoes, composite, shield and dome. Composite volcanoes, are steep sided cones formed from layers of ash and lava. The flow can travel down the side of a volcano at very high speeds with temperatures over 350 degrees celsius and can rise over 7900 feet. Shield volcanoes are low with gently sloping sides and are formed from layers of lava. Eruptions are normally non-explosive. Shield volcanoes produce fast lava that can flow very far. They can destroy buildings, but injury in humans is rare. Dome volcanoes have much steeper sides than shield volcanoes. Lava is very thick and sticky so it cools and hardens easily. I have never seen a volcano in the front of my eyes. Only in photos. Have you ever??? PEACE!
