Which outcome occurs when crustal magma density decreases?

💡 Explanation

A decrease of magma density will reduce the crustal buoyancy because isostasy balances density variations; therefore the mantle plume subsides, rather than promote explosive eruptions, which need volatile build-up and upward propulsion.
