Both 1 and 2
Neither 1 nor 2
? The island of Hunga Tonga Hunga Ha'apai' (world's newest island) rose from the seabed about 65 km northwest of the Tongan capital Nukualofa in late 2014 or early 2015. Hence, statement 1 is correct.
? The world?s newest island was formed during a volcanic eruption in the remote Pacific Ocean. According to NASA, it may offer clues to how life potentially developed on Mars. Hence, statement 2 is correct.
? The barren, bone-coloured island was formed after a submarine volcano in the South Pacific Kingdom of Tonga erupted, sending a vast stream of steam, ash and rock 30,000 feet into the air. When the dust settled in January 2015, an entirely new island had formed which had a 120-metre high hill and was so large it was visible from space. Scientist estimated it would be around for just a few months, but now Nasa experts said it could be around for at least 30 years. The Tongan island is the third „surtseyan? volcanic island in the last 150 years to emerge from the sea and hang around for more than a few months. Surtsey is the name of an island which formed during an eruption off the coast of Iceland in 1963.
