Passage
Compared to the North American continent, which was formed over millions of years through the gradual
shifting of large plates, the Hawaiian Islands were created rather abruptly. The Hawaiian Islands are the
result of volcanic explosions deep within the Earth that forced liquid magma to flow upwards to the Earth's
surface. Once on the surface, magma cools and forms hard rock. When the rock emerges from the
surrounding sea, an island is born.
Question
Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
O The rocks that form the Hawaiian Islands were once underwater.
O The North American continent can be considered a large island.
O The Hawaiian Islands used to be connected to the North American continent.
O There are no longer any volcanoes on the Hawaiian Islands.
