Which of the following results in decompression melting?
a. abnormally high heat
b. decrease in lithostatic pressure
c. addition of volatiles
d. presence of fiction
[tex] \huge\pink{Explanation:}[/tex]
Decompression melting commonly occurs at divergent plate boundaries, where two tectonic plates are moving away from each other. During decompression melting, upwelling of the mantle results in a rapid decrease in pressure. Temperature may remain constant, or even decrease slightly.
hope this helps
love lots!
