    The best answer is shield volcano. Magma that has little silica content tends to have low viscosity and is therefore not thick but runny and tends to trickle out from the surface rather than erupt or explode.

    This kind of magma tends to form shied volcanoes. Shield volcanoes are formed by lava of low viscosity, which flows easily.

    The largest shield volcano is Mauna Loa on the Big Island of Hawaii. All the volcanoes in the Hawaiian Islands are shield volcanoes.
