Which outcome occurs when viscous lava rises relatively uniformly within a stratovolcano?

💡 Explanation

An exogenous lava dome forms from the effusion of viscous lava undergoing plastic deformation; rather than fragmenting into pyroclastics, laminar flow creates the expanding dome, because the low gas content inhibits explosive activity, therefore the process is plastic deformation, not fragmentation.
