DMPQ :What are fissure volcanoes ? Give some example

In Fissure volcanic eruptions, the Lava comes out to the surface through the cracks of the rock strata and hence the fissure eruptions are not much explosive. The fissure eruptions are smooth and the Lava spreads to a larger area, so they form landscapes such as plateaus.  The major component of volcano are basalt. Basalt is highly fluid in nature.
