For the first question, the correct response is:
**C** action of convergent plate boundaries.
The Andes, Appalachian, and Himalayan Mountains all formed as a result of tectonic processes at convergent plate boundaries, where plates collide and interact.
For the second question, the correct response is:
**C** tectonic plate boundaries.
Earthquakes and volcanoes are primarily concentrated along tectonic plate boundaries, where the movement of these plates creates the conditions for such geological activities.
**C** action of convergent plate boundaries.
The Andes, Appalachian, and Himalayan Mountains all formed as a result of tectonic processes at convergent plate boundaries, where plates collide and interact.
For the second question, the correct response is:
**C** tectonic plate boundaries.
