What is the difference between a secondary cone and a secondary vent of a volcano?

0

A secondary cone is formed from the expulsion of magma and a secondary vent is formed when hot gases and steam escape through fissures or cracks in the rock. A composite volcano typically has several separate vents, with secondary cinder cones and craters. See the links below for additional information. Hope this helps.
