Answer:

c. shield volcano

Step-by-step explanation:

Shield volcano: expels a large amount of lava and gradually builds a large shield-shaped mountain. The lava produced by this type of volcano is very hot and fluid, contributing to a longer runoff. One such example is the Mauna Loa, found in Hawaii, 9000 m high and 120 km in diameter.
