Answer:

Option 4, Large depression in a volcano

Step-by-step explanation:

Caldera is a form of volcanic depression or a basin-shaped crater at volcano top which is formed by a large volcanic eruption and collapse of rock into magma chamber. These two events leave behind a deep underground chamber depression. For example - Yellowstone National Park in USA and Valles Grande in New Mexico are example of Caldera. Sometimes these Calderas have active geothermal system.

Hence, option 4 is correct
