The correct answer of the given question above would be, composite volcano, rhyolitic magma, and plinian explosion. The type of volcano, magma and eruption that was most likely involved in the eruption of Mt. Mayon in the Philippines, wherein he said that great explosions were very high into the air of both lava and pyroclastic flow, are a composite volcano, rhyolitic magma, and plinian explosion.

Answer: According to the information given in the question is composite volcano, rhyolitic magma, and plinian explosion.

  • A stratovolcano also known as composite volcano is conical in shape and is made of strata of hardened lava, ash and pumic.
  • If the rhylotic magma is full of gas it can erupt explosively along with the deposits of ash. The lava can be sometimes porous.
  • The most dangerous form of volcanic eruption is caused by fragmentation of gassy and viscous magma.
