How many volcanic islands does Hawaii have?
All of the Hawaiian Islands are volcanic, but only Hawaii, the Big Island, has active volcanoes at this time.
Are all islands made from volcaneos?
not all are made of volcanic rock but those that are close to active volcanoes will most prob be built of volcanic rock :-)
Does every Hawaiian island have a volcano?
Most of the Hawaiian islands were formed by volcanic activity, but not all islands currently have active volcanoes. The Big Island of Hawaii is home to active volcanoes, while some of the other islands, such as Kauai and Oahu, have dormant or extinct volcanoes.
Are all of the Hawiian islands volcanoes active?
No. Only a handful of Hawaii's volcanoes are active.

They were all produced by volcanoes.
How many of alaskas mountains are volcanoes?

What American islands are actually an underwater chain of volcanoes?
The American islands that are actually an underwater chain of volcanoes are the Hawaiian Islands. These islands were formed by volcanic activity from the Hawaiian-Emperor seamount chain. The islands of Hawaii, Maui, Oahu, Kauai, and others are all part of this volcanic chain.
What volcano in Hawaii is a shield volcano?
All of the active and inactive volcanoes that are part of the Hawaiian-Emperor Seamount chain are shield volcanoes. Shield volcanoes are the result of Hot Spot volcanism which is the type of volcanic force that created the Hawaiian islands.
Are there active volcanoes in Poland?
No. they are all extinct. The extinct volcanoes are: Ostrzyca, Grodczyn, and Wilcza Góra.
Why do some Hawaiian islands have active volcanoes and some don't?
All of the Hawaiian islands are volcanic in origin. The volcanoes are fed by a hot spot, where extra hot material wells up in the mantle, generating magma. This hot spot generally stays in one place while the Pacific Plate above it moves. As this happens, older volcanoes are carried away from the hot spot and lose their source of magma.
Is Ireland a volcanic island?
It was probably at one time because all islands are formed by under water volcanoes.
Would volcanoes form at a hot spot?
Yes, they would. Hawaii is a prime example; all of its islands are either extinct or active volcanoes.
