Correct me
Actually @Tomura Shigiraki, *volcanoes can be extinct. An extinct volcano is one that has been cut off from its lava supply and has not erupted for more than 10,000 years. Since Mount Twin Peaks has not erupted in over three million years, it can be classified as extinct.

The correct answer is a) dormant.
To determine the most likely status of Mount Twin Peaks, we can look at its past volcanic activity. According to the information provided, Mount Twin Peaks erupted three million years ago and has not erupted since then. Based on this information, we can classify Mount Twin Peaks as dormant.
When a volcano is dormant, it means that it is currently not erupting but has the potential to erupt again in the future. Dormant volcanoes can remain inactive for thousands or even millions of years before showing signs of activity.
