Which event could most likely cause a different type of
volcano to form instead of a lava dome?
Read this excerpt from "Types of Volcanoes."
Lava domes are the fourth kind of volcano. They can
form near composite volcanoes or on their own. When
underground pressure pushes magma toward the
surface but there is not enough fluidity for the magma
to burst free, a dome of slow-moving lava forms and
cools above ground.
if the magma were being released under water
O if the magma were able to flow more like a liquid
O if the volcano were on flat ground instead of another
volcano
O if the volcano were to develop in a colder area of the
Earth
