What is hot spots?

In geology, hotspots (or hot spots) are volcanic locales thought to be fed by underlying mantle that is anomalously hot compared with the surrounding mantle.

A hot spot is an area on Earth that exists over a mantle plume. A mantle plume is an area under the rocky outer layer of Earth, called the crust, where magma is hotter than surrounding magma.

A hot spot is fed by a region deep within the Earth’s mantle from which heat rises through the process of convection. This heat facilitate s the melting of rock at the base of the lithosphere, where the brittle, upper portion of the mantle meets the Earth’s crust.

The correct answer is option A,B,C,E.
