    Answer: (C) A hot spot

    Explanation:

    A hot spot is created in the volcanic peaks and it is basically developed over the plume. The mantle plumes are the areas of the up-welling and the hot mantle areas. Magma created by the problem area ascends through the unbending plates in the lithosphere layer.

    It produces the dynamic volcano at the surface of the earth. In the mantle area, the hot spot are generated in which the rocks are get melted for generating the magma. The hot spot generated the heat are basically comes from the middle of the earth.

    It would be a hot spot

    To put it simply, a hot spot is an area on a tectonic plate, where the magma is able to flow through easily, and it's in the middle of the plate. As the plate moves, this magma coming from the middle of the plate ejects magma, which hardens to form volcanic islands
