<em>The convergence between a continental plate and an oceanic plate</em><em> is subduction process where the denser oceanic plate force the </em><em>thinner continental plate to sink into the mantle.</em>
<u>Answer:</u><em> Option (D)</em>
<u>Explanation:</u>
The<em> type of volcanism formed the Andean Mountains in South America</em> is due to subduction process. It is due to the converging of Nazca Plate over Antarctic Plate due to gravity and made them to sink below the <em>South American Plate. </em>
This process still continues today and due to the activity, it causes volcanic eruptions and earthquakes in that region. It was reported about <em>150 - 160 (approx.) active volcanoes in the Volcanic Belt of Andes.</em>
There are about 48 countries in Asia.

Predicting where an earthquake epicenter will occur is easier because are patterns to look at due to the fact that they always occur near plate boundaries. Predicting when they will occur is difficult because they do not follow any certain pattern.
