Volcanic arcs Choose one: A. form where subduction takes place. B. are long, curving mountain chains adjacent to mid-ocean ridges. C. occur at divergent-plate boundaries. D. are only continental.

Explanation:

A chain of volcanoes that appears like an arc when seen from above and are formed above a sub ducting plate. they are formed due to rising magma erupting due to melting of the down going plate.

They are curved due to the curvature of Earth, Andes mountains are a volcanic arc, they are different from the hotspot volcanic chains, in hotspot volcanic chains the volcanoes form in the middle of a tectonic plate. There are two types of volcanic arcs: Oceanic arcs and continental arcs.
