Answer:

C.) Ocean-continent convergent boundary

Explanation:

Near the coast of Oregon, Washington, Canada, and Alaska is located the Juan de la Fuca plate. This is a convergent plate boundary that has caused severely strong earthquakes. This type of plate is a subduction zone since it subducts from North America under what's left of the Farallon oceanic plate.
