Question

1. choose the correct answer. ______ volcanoes have no activity, and have not erupted in over 10,000 years.

options: dormant, extinct, cinder cone, active

Explanation:

• Dormant volcanoes are temporarily inactive but may erupt again.
• Extinct volcanoes are defined as having no activity and no eruptions for over 10,000 years, as they are considered unlikely to erupt again.
• Cinder cone is a type of volcano (based on structure), not related to activity status.
• Active volcanoes have recent or ongoing activity.

So the correct term for volcanoes with no activity and no eruptions in over 10,000 years is "Extinct".

Answer:

B. Extinct
