Solution
The correct option is C volcanoes Options A and D are incorrect as there is no word such as volcanos or volcanoez in English language. These spellings are incorrect.
Option B is incorrect as it is in singular noun form and not plural.
The plural form of a noun ending with the letter -o is formed by suffixing "es" to the noun. As the noun volcano ends with the letter o, its plural form is: volcanoes. The correct answer is option C.
