The answer is D.

Explanation:

Plates which pull apart are known as divergent plate boundaries, while plates which push together are known as convergent plate boundaries. At divergent plate boundaries, magma flows up from the inner parts of the earth and flows out. When it cools and turns to stone, types of volcanoes are left. Magma is stored inside the volcanoes.
