Question
Volcanic arcs and island arcs are both created by what?
a
Movement at a transform boundary creates seismic waves, which shapes the land at the surface into a volcano.
b
Collison between two Continental Crusts produces enough friction to heat a pocket of lava on the surface
c
Lightning strikes a Non-Volcanic Mountain, creating a crater, and heating the area underneath to form magma.
d
Collision and Subduction of an oceanic plate with any other kind of plate, both turns the subducted crust back into lava, and creates a crack to the crust for lava to escape, therefore creating a volcano

The correct answer is:
**d** Collision and Subduction of an oceanic plate with any other kind of plate, both turns the subducted crust back into lava, and creates a crack to the crust for lava to escape, therefore creating a volcano.
Volcanic arcs and island arcs are typically formed as a result of the subduction of one tectonic plate beneath another, often involving an oceanic plate plunging under either another oceanic or continental plate. This geological process generates magma, which can lead to volcanic activity and the formation of arcs.
