What type of volcanos would be the most explosive?
volcanoes that have large amounts of silica The most explosive volcanoes are stratovolcanoes with felsic magama that has a high gas content. A. Shield Volcano- these usually form at hot spots and are like the ones in Hawaii. THey are nonexplosive because the lava is very runny. This would not be the most explosive. B. Cindercone-this would probably be your best bet although they erupt only once during their liftime. They are the smallest type of volcano and have steep sides. When it explodes, it shoots out pyroclastic material. C. Composite Volcano-this is also called a stratovolcano. It has both nonexplosive and explosive eruptions. THey can have many eruptions. IF the cinder cone was not what you were looking for, then this would be your second choice.
How do red clouds form?
Normally from the Eruptions of Volcanoes

Are shield volcanoes hot spots?
Shield volcanoes are not hot spots but they are associated with them. However, such volcanoes can also form at rift zones.
Volcanoes that form at hot spots from many non explosive eruptions?
It's a shield volcano. Curtesy of a quick google search [from geography.learnontheinternet.co.uk] Shield Volcanoes Eruptions are typically non-explosive. Shield volcanoes produce fast flowing fluid [lava] that can flow for many miles. Eruptions tend to be frequent but relatively gentle.
What do hot spots form?
flood basalts and volcanoes
Where do shield volcanoes form?
at hot spots(a place where volcanoes are very active)
How do convergent boundaries set up conditions that form volcanoes?
It collides with the upper mantle that forms volcanoes with violent eruptions
Volcanoes that form far from plate boundaries form as the result as?
Hot spots!
Which of the following is true about volcanic eruptions?
Volcanic eruptions act as constructive forces when lava builds up to form volcanoes and plateaus.
Why do they have volcanoes?
Volcanoes form from either techtonic plates crashing together or from hot spots under the earth
Other than volcanoes what can hot spots form?
flood basalts
