What is the difference between hotspot volcanoes and volcanoes formed at plate boundaries?
Hotspot volcanoes form over a fixed hotspot in the mantle, resulting in a chain of volcanoes as the tectonic plate moves over it, like the Hawaiian Islands. Volcanoes at plate boundaries are formed by the interaction of tectonic plates, where one plate is forced under another (subduction) or plates move apart (divergence), creating volcanic activity along the boundary, like the Ring of Fire.
Why do volcanoes form along plate boundaries?
Think of how pimples are formed.
Why are volcanoes usually near hills?
volcanoes are usually the mountains,the plate boundaries colliding depend on where the volcanoes are formed so they are not purposely always formed by mountains.
What plate boundary are volcanoes formed at?
Volcanoes can form at three places-1. Divergent boundaries2. Convergent boundaries (oceanic-oceanic and oceanic-continental)2. Above hot spots
Where are volcanoes most likely formed?
mostly around the pacific ocean
What boundary is it when a volcano formed?
Volcanoes can form at convergent boundaries, divergent boundaries, and at hot spots away from any plate boundary.
Are most volcanoes formed near colliding plate boundaries?
... Yes that is exactly where they form and the most dangerous volcanoes are formed in this area by wide opening, colliding plates.
Where do most earthquakes and volcanos occure?
they are formed along the crustal movements of the earth.
How are volcanoes related to plate boundaries?
Almost all volcanoes are located along plate boundaries. The exceptions are volcanoes like Kilauea, in Hawaii. Kilauea is not located near a plate boundary. Instead, it is formed by a mantle plume. Again, this type of volcano is much, much rarer than those that form at plate boundaries.
What kind of landforms are formed at transform plate boundaries?
there are many landforms such as volcanoes moutains little islands and trenches may also form at the transformation plate boundaries. i think this is the answer
What types of Volcanoes can occur far from any plate boundaries?
Shield volcanoes may occur far from any plate boundaries.
What boundaries produce volcanos?
plate boundaries can produce volcanoes
