    Volcanoes exist in different shapes and sizes but all are linked to underground magma chambers. When pressure builds in these chambers, magma escapes through surface vents, forming different types of volcanoes varying in size, composition, and explosiveness. Stratovolcanoes are among the most recognizable with steep, conical summits towering over the terrain, composed of layers of lava, ash, and rock.

    Volcanoes Come in a Variety of Shapes and Sizes While volcanoes exist in a range of shapes and

    sizes, they all share a few important traits. All volcanoes are linked to a reservoir of molten rock
    known as a magma chamber under the Earth's surface. When pressure builds up inside the
    chamber, the buoyant magma escapes through a surface vent or series of vents and a central
    interior conduit or set of pipes. Several types of volcanoes are formed as a result of these eruptions,
    which vary in size, composition, and explosiveness. Stratovolcanoes are among of the most easily
    recognized and striking volcanoes, with steep, conic summits soaring thousands of meters above
    the terrain. They are also known as composite volcanoes because they are composed of layers of
    lava, volcanic ash, and fractured rock.
