Solution

The correct option is A Magma, lava
Magma is an extremely hot liquid and semi-liquid rock located under Earth's surface. Earth has a layered structure that consists of the inner core, outer core, mantle, and crust. Much of the planet's mantle consists of magma. When magma flows or erupts onto Earth's surface, it is called lava.
