Answer: Option [B]Acid lava flows slowly as it is highly viscous. Acid lava is highly vicious in nature, with high melting point, it is light in colour, it is high in silica content, it is slow moving and it comes from cone volcanoes whereas basic lava is non-vicious in nature, it is mafic, it flows faster and is high in potassium.
