3 points Save Magma from a highly explosive volcano is very viscous runny high in volume

OpenStudy (youngster):

Depends- I would guess runny.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Viscous, probably. The high viscosity is what makes the volcano explosive, because it doesn't flow very well. It's like the difference between pouring water and ketchup out of a bottle. The thick (viscious) ketchup tends to come out in fits and starts, as sudden globs, because it doesn't flow through the opening very easily.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

viscous is the answer because magma is melted rocks which when comes out of volcano is called lava. its very thick so that it barely flows also because of cold environment it stars freezing as well and gets more viscous
