What is typically responsible for forming volcanic island chains in the oceans? Question 10 options: A) Composite volcanoes B) F
RSB [31]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

A hot spot develops above the plume. Magma generated by the hot spot rises through the rigid plates of the lithosphere and produces active volcanoes at the Earth's surface. And as oceanic volcanoes move away from the hot spot, they cool and subside. As a result they produce older islands, atolls, and seamounts.
