B) Volcanic eruptions act as constructive forces when they blast away the sides of volcanoes.

C) Volcanic eruptions act as constructive forces when volcanic gases cause acid rain that weathers rocks.

D) Volcanic eruptions act as constructive forces when lava builds up to form volcanoes and plateaus.

Answer :

D is the correct answer to your problem


The following statement is correct about volcanic eruption:

D) Volcanic eruptions act as constructive forces when lava builds up to form volcanoes and plateaus.

  • Volcanic eruptions are constructive forces.
  • Constructive forces are the forces that tend to produce new landform on the surface of Earth.
  • The constructive forces help in development of new landforms on the surface of Earth.
  • Destructive forces are responsible for disturbing the integrity and structure of the landform. These are weathering and erosion.
  • So, volcanic eruption being constructive forces help in development of new landforms, they do not explode away the sides of the volcanoes, they do not cause acid rain being part of constructive forces as constructive forces do not cause weathering of rocks.
  • The lava erupted from volcanic eruption led to the development of volcanoes and plateaus.

Hence, D) is the correct option.
