The subduction that occurred in Virginia’s Piedmont region MOST LIKELY created **B: volcanoes.**
Subduction zones are areas where one tectonic plate moves under another and is forced down into the mantle, which can lead to volcanic activity. The Piedmont region, being part of the Appalachian region, has historical evidence of ancient subduction processes that would have contributed to volcanic activity during its geological history.
