A. it is made up of rock so hot that it flows
Answer:
The volcano over a mantle hotspot
Explanation:
I say this because lava comes from the grinding of those mantles, which melt rocks and make lava. If the mantles are super active, the lava will more than likely be explosive. Think of this (heat wise) as tea boiling in a kettle. The stove is the mantle, kettle as volcano and water as lava. When the mantles get hot enough they push that heat and pressure into the water, making it boil and when the steam starts to squeal out of the kettle, the volcano has erupted. Hope this helped!
