Answer:

Option C, Use seismographs to predict volcanic eruptions

Step-by-step explanation:

People living near volcanoes proximity are at high risk during the eruption period of volcanoes. As the volcano erupts it releases harmful gases and also the hot molten lava flows out of it thereby disrupting every thing that comes in its way.

If people living in such areas are able to get pre information of volcanic eruptions then they can get time to shift to new safer place.

Hence, option C is correct
