Volcanoes occur at underwater subduction zones. In fact, volcanoes form at most if not all types of subduction zones. Subduction zones are regions where tectonic plates collide and one plate bends and slides underneath the other plate. This bent plate reaches the mantle of the Earth, putting more pressure on the hot materials inside it.
I don't know if you have any options, but I believe that the Europeans went to the Pacific to trade fur at the time. They went to America primarily in order to trade fur with the Native American tribes who lived there. The French, the English, and the Dutch were primarily interested in fur trade during those centuries.
Flat-topped seamounts called guyots are formed when volcanic islands subside and are eroded over time.
The statement is true.
During their evolution over geologic time, the largest seamounts can also reach the sea surface where wave action erodes the summit to form a flat surface. After they have subsided and sunk underneath the sea surface such flat-top seamounts are called "guyots" or "table mounts".
While these flat-topped seamounts sooner or later sink back down to deep water, they're called guyots. Of all of the seamounts inside the Pacific, guyots have the maximum varied geology and consequently the maximum varied habitats for animals to stay.
But as quickly as a volcano breaches the ocean floor, waves and other sub-aerial methods (wind, rainfall, weathering) will motivate erosion of the volcano. over time, those processes will erode the flanks and top of the seamount/island, ultimately forming a flat shelf to form a guyot.

Answer:
false Metamorphic rocks can only form from pre-existing rocks. Metamorphic rocks only form as a result of metamorphism of igneous or sedimentary rocks. Rock melting to form magma defines the upper limit of metamorphic processes. The oldest rock exposed to Earth's surface is a metamorphic rock.
