    Answer:

    Age

    Depth

    Explanation:

    Viscosity is referred to as a measure of a material’s resistance to flow

    Rise in temperature or heat, burial, exposure to existing magmas, dissolved gases, exposure to mantle plumes, decreasing pressure, and high water content, crystal composition are factors that affect the viscosity of magma;

    However, age and depth are two of the factors that do not affect the viscosity of magma/lava

    Answer:

    The question is incomplete because it lacked the options. These are the options..

    a. composition

    b. age

    c. temperature

    d. dissolved gases

    Answer is B. Age.

    Explanation:

    Viscosity is simply described or explained as the resistance to flow.

    Magma is known to be the molten rock material under the Earth’s crust. It known to come out from the rock or mountain through the vent during volcano eruption.

    All the other options except the age, that is , composition, temperature and dissolved gases  contribute to the viscosity of the magma.

    Magma with higher SiO and, increase in temperature tends to increase viscosity of the magma.
