B.) Earthquakes are the most common cause of tsunamis.

C.) Seafloor spreading occurs at convergent boundaries.

D.) A volcanic eruption releases hot gases into the air.

E.) A single hot spot can form multiple volcanoes due to plate motion.

Answer;

B.) Earthquakes are the most common cause of tsunamis

D.) A volcanic eruption releases hot gases into the air.

E.) A single hot spot can form multiple volcanoes due to plate motion.

Explanation; The Tsunamis occur as a result of violent movement of the seafloor that is associated with the impact of the earthquakes, landslide or the lava entering the sea among other factors. Earthquakes are the common cause of tsunamis at 72 percent. A volcanic eruption releases hot gases into the air. During a volcanic eruption gases that are initially dissolved in magma are released into the atmosphere. Water vapor is the most abundant gas released from a volcanic eruption. A hot spot refers to an area in the mantle from which heat rises from deep in the Earth as a thermal plume. This high heat and low pressure in the tectonic plates causes melting of the rock which rises through the cracks and erupts. A single hot spot can form multiple volcanoes due to plate motion
