    Active volcanoes have erupted within the last 10,000 years, while inactive volcanoes, also called dormant or sleeping volcanoes, have not erupted in over 10,000 years. The key difference between active and inactive volcanoes is whether they have erupted recently, with volcanoes that have erupted in the past 10,000 years considered active, and those that have been dormant longer than that deemed inactive.

    THE DIFFERENCE

    BETWEEN ACTIVE
    AND INACTIVE
    VOLCANOES

    GROUP 2
    PRESENTATION
    *ACTIVE VOLCANOES*
    -An active volcano is a volcano that has had at least one
    eruption during the past 10,000 years.
    *INACTIVE VOLCANOES*
    -An inactive volcano is one that could erupt but has not
    erupted for more than 10,000 years. Inactive volcanoes are
    also called dormant or sleeping volcanoes.
    INACTIVE VOLCANOES*
    -The most popular way for
    classifying volcanoes comes
    down to the frequency of
    their eruption. Those that
    erupt regularly are called
    active, while those that
    have erupted in historical
    times but are now quiet are
    called dormant or
    (inactive). But in the end,
    knowing the difference all
    comes down to timing!
