Answer: Shield, Cinder Cone, and Composite volcano.

Explanation: A shield volcano is a volcano that is formed with lava is very runny and spreads to a wide area and then cools to form a shield volcano. These are common at Hawaii.

A cinder cone volcano is the smallest volcano. It's made from minor eruptions and cinders. They're short and usually erupt for a short period of time. Mexico's Parícutin volcano, is a cinder cone.

Answer:

Deposition

Explanation:

Landslides occur under the effect of gravity. When a mass of rock or earth slides down from a mountain or from a cliff then this phenomenon is termed as Landslide.

Landslides are considered to be a rapid method of erosion.  Wind, waves, running water, glaciers and gravity are the five agents of erosion out of which the gravity influences the process of Landslides.

Landslides occur suddenly and are dangerous example of the movement of earth materials under the influence of gravity. When weathered material falls away from a cliff, it slides down under the effect of gravity and finally after reaching the hill, the material gets deposited there. This is called Deposition by landslides.
