Solution

The correct option is C The Pacific Plate meets many surrounding plates
<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> About three fourth of all the active volcanoes in the world are located in Pacific Ring of Fire. The Pacific Plate meets many surrounding plates, thus making it the most seismically and volcanically active zone in the world.
