The correct descriptions for the locations where Earth's volcanoes are formed are:
2. They form in areas where Earth's crust is thin.
4. They form along plate boundaries.
Volcanoes are commonly associated with regions where tectonic plates interact, such as at divergent boundaries (where plates move apart) and convergent boundaries (where one plate subducts beneath another). Additionally, areas where the crust is thinner can allow magma to easily ascend to the surface, leading to volcanic activity. While some volcanoes can occur in continental interiors (such as hotspots), the primary locations are indeed along plate boundaries and in regions with thinner crust.

If I can only pick one, the best choice would be:
**4. They form along plate boundaries.**
This statement encompasses the primary locations where most of Earth's volcanoes are found, as many volcanic activities occur at divergent and convergent plate boundaries.

The feature that forms when one tectonic plate is forced to bend and dive under another is called a **subduction zone**. In a subduction zone, the oceanic plate, which is denser, usually sinks beneath a less dense continental plate or another oceanic plate, leading to the creation of features such as deep ocean trenches, volcanic arcs, and earthquake activity in the area.

Based on your choices, the correct feature that forms when one plate is forced to bend and dive under another is a **submarine volcano**.
When an oceanic plate subducts beneath another plate, it can lead to the melting of the subducted plate and the formation of magma, which can rise to the surface and create submarine volcanic activity.

The correct answer is:
**4. It radiates outward in all directions.**
When blocks of Earth's crust slip past each other along faults, the energy produced during this movement (which can be caused by tectonic activity) is released as seismic waves. These seismic waves radiate outward from the point of energy release, often referred to as the focus or hypocenter of an earthquake.
