Solution
The correct option is A Mt. Stromboli and Mt. Etna in Italy
Stromboli is one of the most active volcanoes on Earth and
has been erupting almost continuously since 1932. Because it has been active
for much of the last 2,000 years and its eruptions are visible for long
distances at night, it is known as the "Lighthouse of the
Mediterranean". It is among the world's most visited volcanoes.
Mount Etna is Europe's highest and most active volcano.
Towering above the city of Catania on the island of Sicily, it has been growing
for about 500,000 years and is in the midst of a series of eruptions that began
in 2001.
