The correct answer is - c. The most geologically active region of North America is found along the West Coast.

The West Coast of North America is by far the geologically most active region in this continent. This region is part of the so called ''Ring of Fire''. Here we have the boundaries of North American tectonic plate and the Pacific tectonic plate. Because of the processes that are taking place between the tectonic plates there's a very big rift valley that is expanding more and more. The earthquakes are a common occurrence, and the biggest volcano in the world beneath the Yellowstone National Park lies in this part of the continent.

5. What happens during a volcanic eruption? Explain your <br><br>​
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

Deep within the Earth it is so hot that some rocks slowly melt and become a thick flowing substance called magma. Since it is lighter than the solid rock around it, magma rises and collects in magma chambers. Eventually, some of the magma pushes through vents and fissures to the Earth's surface.

What is the cause of volcanic activity in New Zealand?
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

New Zealand is located in one of the most tectonically active regions of the world, the pacific ring of fire.

Volcanic activities is produced from uprising magma through the earth. They usually occur around plate boundaries on the surface of the earth.

New Zealand sits around an area where the Pacific plate subducts under the Indo-Australian plate. As the subduction occurs, the rocks beneath undergoes partial melting leading to the formation of magma. The magma reaches the surface in landward regions away from the subduction margins and series of volcanic arcs can form. These series of volcanoes typifies the tectonic setting of New Zealand and it is responsible for the vast volcanic activity in the region.
