D. Student 2 because a volcanic island does not rise above ocean surface.

B. Student 1 because a seamount does not rise above ocean surface.

Explanation:

To find - A class is identifying the features in the map above. Student 1 thinks that X is a seamount and Student 2 thinks that X is a volcanic island. Who is correct and why?

Reason -

We know that,

If a volcano does not reach the surface of the ocean, it is called a seamount.

If a volcano grows in height and volume enough to reach the ocean’s surface, it becomes a volcanic island.

So,

The correct option is - B. Student 1 because a seamount does not rise above ocean surface.
