The correct answer is:
C. Mars does not have moving tectonic plates, which allows lava to keep flowing in the same place.
This explanation is accurate because the lack of tectonic plate movement on Mars allows volcanic activity to occur in a single location for a longer period of time, resulting in the accumulation of larger volcanic structures. In contrast, Earth's tectonic activity tends to move volcanoes away from the hotspot of magma generation, limiting their size.
