Which outcome results when magma composition shifts within a subduction zone volcano?

A)Increased explosive eruption frequency occurs
B)Decreased pyroclastic flow activity occurs
C)Reduced lahar formation probability is shown
D)Enhanced hydrothermal vent systems develop

💡 Explanation

Increased explosive eruption frequency occurs because volatile content concentrates during magmatic differentiation increasing pressure, and therefore explosive eruptions are more likely, rather than effusive flows under different degassing conditions.
