2. A wide volcano that produces mainly basaltic lava flows is called a .

3. A very steep-sided volcano built primarily from ejected lava fragments is called a .

4. Broad sheets of fluid lava travel long distances and give shield volcanoes their distinctive shape.

5. Moderately viscous and gas-rich lavas can erupt as lava flows or pyroclastic materials, leading to the steepening slope of composite volcanoes.

6. Explosive eruptions of create steep-sided cinder cone volcanoes.
