Solution

The correct option is C Volcano

Volcanic activity frequently occurs at the boundaries of the Earth's tectonic plates which are a series of large moving blocks. The movement of these plates plays a significant role in the type of volcano formed, which influences its shape. If the movement is smaller, they leads to volcanic eruptions. Larger movements may lead to earthquakes.
