C: volcanic eruptions
D: tornados

D: tornados

Tornadoes are not a result of plate tectonics; they are typically caused by severe thunderstorms and specific atmospheric conditions. In contrast, earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions are all directly linked to the movement and interactions of tectonic plates.
