Volcanoes emit several gases, and not very nice ones (hence the reason that nothing living can exist inside the crater of a volcano). Two gases that volcanoes emit that are NOT poisonous include water and carbon dioxide. On the other hand, they also emit nasty gases like sulfur dioxide.

Lava, ash, and gases like sulfur dioxide are three different things that can be emitted from volcanoes during an eruption.
There are three different types of volcanoes. The types of volcanoes are shield volcanoes, dome volcanoes, and also composite volcanoes.
Active, dormant, and extinct.
The three main types of volcanoes are shield volcanoes, cinder cone volcanoes, and composite (stratovolcanoes) volcanoes. Shield volcanoes have gentle slopes and are formed by low-viscosity lava flows. Cinder cone volcanoes are smaller, steeper volcanoes composed of pyroclastic material. Composite volcanoes are tall, steep-sided volcanoes built by alternating layers of lava flows and ash deposits.
There are three main shapes of volcanoes: shield volcanoes, cinder cone volcanoes, and stratovolcanoes. Each type has distinct characteristics based on its eruption style, lava composition, and shape.
