Cinder Cone Volcano
A steep, cone-shaped volcano, it is made of ash and cinders
Real World Example
Imagine trying to pile up sand at the beach to make a perfect cone-shaped sandcastle, but it keeps collapsing and sliding down. This is similar to how a cinder cone volcano forms, as loose materials like ash and cinders are ejected and fall back down around a volcanic vent, creating a steep, cone-shaped structure. Just like how the sand forms a mound, the ash and cinders accumulate, but need just the right balance to maintain their shape without collapsing, illustrating how the forces of nature construct a cinder cone volcano.
