This is known as a hotspot. Examples include the hotspot responsible for the Hawaiian Ridge-Emperor Seamounts chain and the one responsible for the significant volcanism of Iceland.
A volcano is a place where magma wells up to the surface from earth's mantle.

A hot spot
Magma originates from within the earth's interior; in the crust or mantle.
magma comes from the outer core and when an earthquake or something happends, a crack froms and the pressure of lava shoots up like a geyser.
Yes it does , The magma finds gaps through the crust ( oceanic or continental) and comes up as a volcano. It is originally in the mantle.
True
Igneous rock

Magma from deep within the mantle melts through the crust which is what causes hot spot volcanoes to form

True
Igneous rock
Magma from the mantle of the earth is forced up through fissures in the crust of the earth.
Magma comes from the melting of material in the crust or upper mantle.
Cools ^ If you took this answer then is Magma relevant to Ice? Magma forms when the solid rock in the crust and upper mantle melts. ^Why not erase it then?
No, magma is not material from the core of the Earth. Magma is molten rock that is generated in the Earth's mantle, which lies between the core and the crust. Magma can rise to the surface during volcanic eruptions, forming lava flows or erupting explosively.
