2.  Name nine types of volcanoes.

Volcano Types: Calderas, cinder cones, composite volcanoes, lava domes, lava plateaus, shield volcanoes, stratovolcanoes, submarine volcanoes, volcanic domes
 

3.  Explain how a stratovolcano is formed and its prominent features

Some of the Earth's grandest mountains are composite volcanoes -- sometimes called stratovolcanoes. They are typically steep-sided, symmetrical cones of large dimension built of alternating layers of lava flows, volcanic ash, cinders, blocks, and bombs and may rise as much as 8,000 feet above their bases
 

4.  Explain the difference between  a lava plateau, flood basalt, and plateau basalt

5.  How do submarine volcanoes behave differently from land based volcanoes?
