Mt. Rainier in Washington State is often thought to be the most hazardous volcano in the lower 48 states of the United States because ________.
A) large amounts of glacial ice on the mountain could be melted by even a small eruption, potentially generating dangerous lahars that would travel rapidly down river valleys to heavily populated areas
B) it is close enough to Seattle and Tacoma, Washington that these cities could be destroyed in a pyroclastic flow
C) the volcano is close enough to Seattle and Tacoma, Washington that a large explosive eruption could bury the cities in a large rock avalanche similar to the Mt. St. Helens eruption
D) The statement is false; the volcano poses little hazard to humans except for the few who live close to the volcano.
