Expert Solution
Step 1

(8)

Solution-

The following are the key dangers linked with cascades' composite volcanoes: -

- The discharged gas and rock might be dangerous.

- Lahars, which are fast-moving torrents of melting snow and ice combined with volcanic debris, are also a major threat.

- Earthquakes are possible.

- Landslides and pyroclastic flows
