-
A.
Honolulu Volcanic Series
The Honolulu Volcanic Series is a group of relatively young volcanic vents and eruptions on the island of Oʻahu, Hawaii, that produced prominent features such as Diamond Head and other tuff cones and lava flows.
-
B.
Mauna Loa rift zones
The Mauna Loa rift zones are elongated volcanic fissure systems on the flanks of Mauna Loa through which magma rises to feed frequent eruptions and build the volcano’s broad shield structure.
-
C.
Mauna Kea volcanic complex
The Mauna Kea volcanic complex is a massive dormant shield volcano on Hawaii’s Big Island, renowned for its high-altitude summit and world-class astronomical observatories.
-
D.
Hualālai Southwest Rift Zone
Hualālai Southwest Rift Zone is a volcanic fissure system on the western side of Hawaii’s Hualālai volcano, characterized by aligned vents, lava flows, and cones that mark one of the volcano’s primary zones of eruptive activity.
-
E.
Mauna Kea Science Reserve
Mauna Kea Science Reserve is a high-altitude astronomical research area on Hawaii’s Mauna Kea that hosts many of the world’s leading observatories due to its exceptional viewing conditions.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
