Which consequence results after a viscous lava develops plugs, which increase pressures within the volcanic conduit during dome-building eruptions?

💡 Explanation

Because the plugs create a pressure increase surpassing the rock strength, a Plinian eruption occurs causing pyroclastic flows; therefore, pyroclastic flow happens rather than standard lava flows, as pressure release is contained.
