Is mount adatara a plate boundary or a hotspot?

Mount Adatara is associated with a convergent plate boundary, as are all of Japan's volcanoes.


What type of boundary do most volcanoes form on?

Convergent


What type of volcanoes form on a hot spot?

Cinder Cones Mainly Form At Hot Spots off the coast of Africa, Eurasian Plate boundary, etc.


What type of plate boundery is Mauna Loa on?

It isn't on a plate boundary. It's on a hotspot.


What type of boundary is yellowstone?

Yellowstone is not on a plate boundary, but is a 'hotspot' where magma seeps from the mantle to the surface, or near the surface. The case is the same for Hawaii.


What geologic features might form in the surface if one plate goes upward and the other is downward?

Volcanoes are common on this type of plate boundary


Which type of plate boundary does not produce volcanoes?

hot spots


What high mountain ranges without volcanoes are built at which type of plate boundary?

High mountain ranges without volcanoes are built at convergent continental plate boundaries. These vary greatly from divergent boundaries which cause volcanoes to form.


What type of boundary plates produce volcanoes?

convergence plate boundary, where tectonic plates move towards each other and collide, leading to subduction zones which are highly constructive regions of volcanoes. Volcanoes also form at divergent plate boundaries. A good example being the numerous Icelandic volcanoes which have formed over he Mid Atlantic Ridge.


What type of boundaries are associated with Icelandic Volcanoes associated?

The type of boundary associated with Icelandic volcanoes is the constructive plate boundary, where two plates slowly move apart and magma seeps up through the gap.


Which type of plate boundary is associated with volcanoes on land?

Volcanoes on continents can develop at path convergent and divergent boundaries. They can occur where an oceanic plate subducts under a continental plate, producing a volcanic arc such as in the Cascade Range. Volcanoes can also occur in areas of rifting, such as Africa's Great Rift Valley, a developing divergent boundary. Where two oceanic plates converge volcanoes can develop underwater and eventually form volcanic islands. Volcanoes can also develop away from a plate boundary over a hot spot.


What type of rocks are formed in volcanoes?

Volcanoes form igneous rock.
