Answer:

C - a geyser

Step-by-step explanation:

When underground water and gases are heated by magma, they may shoot up to the surface as mud, water, or smoke, creating some very strange landscapes: Gases rise to the surface and form bubbling muddy pools of decomposed volcanic rock particles and water mixed together.
