Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The western coast of a continent is typically associated with tectonic activity, specifically subduction zones that can form a magmatic belt and also result in a fold and thrust belt. Therefore, options A and B are both likely to occur near the western coast of a continent. The other options, hot spot and passive margin, are not typically associated with the western coast of a continent.
