Volcanoes come in different shapes, depending on the type of eruption. Shield volcanoes have shallow, sloping sides and are formed by very hot, runny lava that spreads over a wide area. The majority of the volcanoes that happen occur along the cracks in the lithosphere that mark the edges of the tectonic plates.

Answer:

Minor parties are sometimes referred to as third parties.

In 1912 the Progressive Party nominated Theodore Roosevelt for president.

Third parties hold beliefs major parties do not support.

Some problems third parties have are the lack of financial support and little attention from newspapers and television.

The United States is one of a number of countries that have a two party political system.

Explanation:

The United States has a two-party political system, with Democrats and Republicans covering all of the candidates that have become president since the mid-1800s, despite many third parties fielding presidential candidates.

The Green Party, Reform Party, Libertarians, Constitution Party, and Natural Law Party are only some of the most active third parties.

Often, third parties shape national politics by bringing awareness to issues previously overlooked by the main parties.
