passing over a hotspot

Answer 1

The two correct answers for the processes important in the formation of volcanic arcs at the edge of continental plates are:

1. subduction
2. uplift

Subduction occurs when one tectonic plate moves under another and sinks into the mantle, leading to the formation of volcanic arcs. Uplift can occur as a result of the geological processes associated with subduction and volcanic activity.
