{'volcanic eruption': [5, 0, 2, 5], 'erupt water vapours': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'earthquakes': [2, 0, 0, 2], 'dust particles': [0, 1, 1, 1], 'atmosphere': [1, 1, 4, 7]}

Option 1: Both the statements are individually true and Statement II is the correct explanation of Statement I.

This option states that both statements are true and that Statement II provides the correct explanation for Statement I. However, this is not accurate. While it is true that volcanic eruptions can be accompanied by earthquakes (Statement I), the second statement that volcanoes erupt water vapors and dust particles in the atmosphere is not necessarily a correct explanation for this.

Option 2: Both the statements are individually true but Statement II is not the correct explanation of Statement I.

This option correctly identifies that both statements are true. Volcanic eruptions can indeed be accompanied by earthquakes, and volcanoes can also erupt water vapors and dust particles into the atmosphere. However, the two statements are not directly connected, and the eruption of water vapors and dust particles does not explain why volcanic eruptions are accompanied by earthquakes.

Option 3: Statement I is true but Statement II is false.

This option would suggest that volcanic eruptions are accompanied by earthquakes (Statement I), but volcanoes do not erupt water vapors and dust particles in the atmosphere (Statement II). However, this is not accurate as both statements are true.

Option 4: Statement I is false but Statement II is true
