The most explosive volcanic eruptions are associated with the type of volcano  <em><u>Composite Cones.</u></em>

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The main types of volcanoes consist of cinder cones, composite cones, and shield volcanoes. All three have different characteristics from the shape or type of eruption.

1. Cinder cones type

Cinder cones are the most common type of volcano. This type can be formed as a single volcano or as a parasitic volcano located near other volcanoes. The eruption material of this type varies, such as lava, hot clouds, and gas. Cinder cones volcanoes are generally small, only about 91 to 366 meters above sea level. This type is also called Scoria cones.

2. Composite cones type

Composite cones or Strato volcano are volcanoes formed from layers of lava, ash, and chunks of rock. This type is generally large, more than 2,000 meters above sea level. The slopes are steep with the deep and small caldera. The eruption type of composite cones is <u>very powerful</u> due to a deep magma source and high gas pressure.

3. Shield volcanoes type

A shield volcano is a large sloping volcano formed from very thin and thick lava that spreads in all directions. The peak of this volcano generally tends to be flat with a convex shape resembling a shield. The type of eruption is effusive with lava that melts around the mouth of the mountain. An example of this type of volcano is Mauna Loa in Hawaii.

Afghanistan's mountains
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Afghanistan's mountains have kept the country from ever being invaded.

Explanation:

Afghanistan is a country in terrible conditions, and this is not the case just nowadays but it has been like that for a very long time. Despite all of the internal troubles of the country and it seems to be very weak in pretty much every sector, it has never been invaded in the past few centuries, and very rarely in the more distant history and always it has been short-lasting.

The main reason for this has been the mountains and the general geography of the country. Very high and rugged mountains are separating the country from potential invaders. Even if an invading force manages to go through the mountains, it will suffer great losses just by doing so, and what comes next is desert and more rugged terrain, which will further damage them, so by the time they engage in battle, they will be too weak to conquer Afghanistan.
