The correct answer is - C. hot spots in the mantle.

The Hawaiian Islands are a volcanic islands. They are lying above a hot spot. The hot spot volcanoes, unlike the other ones, are far away from the boundaries of the tectonic plates and they are emerging on places were there's hot spots.

riadik2000 [5.3K]

How and why did absolute and limited monarchies form?
Nesterboy [21]

Answer: They originated in Europe after the Middle Ages.

Explanation:

Absolute monarchies arose under the absolute rule of kings. The best example of an absolutist monarchy and rule is France and its King Louis XIV. The king removed all obstacles to have complete control over the state. He surrounded himself with proven and obedient people and thus ensured absolute rule.

An example of a limited monarchy can be found in England. The parliament decides a country in which there is a king but no absolute power, but the country's political situation. A limited monarchy is the British's effort to avoid complete control of one man in the state.
