What volcano has no side vents?

Does a composite,cinder,or shield volcano have a side vent?

  • Any volcano can have side vents. The least likely to have side vents would be the cinder cone. Most cinder cones are one time events, meaning they erupt once and are finished. The magma that feeds the cinder cone finds another avenue to the surface. That is also why cinder cones are often found in fields or complexes.
