what type of volcano will most likely form when an eruption takes place with explosive force and layers of ash accumulate?
cinder cone volcano
composite volcano
crater volcano
shield volcano

Explanation:

Cinder cone volcanoes are formed from explosive eruptions that eject volcanic ash, cinders, and small rocks. These materials accumulate around the vent, building up the cone - shaped structure. Composite volcanoes (also known as stratovolcanoes) are built from both explosive eruptions (producing ash and cinders) and effusive eruptions (lava flows). However, the key here is the emphasis on layers of ash from explosive force. Crater volcanoes are more about the depression (crater) formed, often after an eruption or collapse. Shield volcanoes are built mainly from fluid lava flows (effusive eruptions) with gentle slopes.

Answer:

Cinder cone volcano
