b Caldera
c Cinder cone
d Stratovolcano

Answer 1

The most dangerous type of supervolcano is typically considered to be a **b Caldera**. Caldera volcanoes have the potential for extremely explosive eruptions that can have catastrophic effects on the environment and human populations. These eruptions can eject vast quantities of ash and pyroclastic materials into the atmosphere, leading to long-term climate changes and widespread destruction. Examples of caldera volcanoes include Yellowstone in the United States and Toba in Indonesia.
