Answer:

C

Explanation:

A hot spot develops above the plume. Magma generated by the hot spot rises through the rigid plates of the lithosphere and produces active volcanoes at the Earth's surface. And as oceanic volcanoes move away from the hot spot, they cool and subside. As a result they produce older islands, atolls, and seamounts.

The Rate of movement of the Pacific Plate will be 37.87cm per year.

Underneath the Pacific Ocean is an oceanic tectonic plate known as the Pacific Plate. It is the largest tectonic plate at 103 million km2. The Farallon, Phoenix, and Izanagi Plate triple junction are where the plate initially formed 190 million years ago.

From the information given, the following can be deduced:

Distance = 500 km = 50000000cm

Time = 1.32 million years = 1320000 years.

Therefore, the rate of plate movement will be (i.e. speed) :

(speed) = Distance / Time

(speed) =  50000000 / 1320000.

(speed) = 37.87 cm/yr
