The crust stretches and gets thinner so the pressure decreases on the mantle rocks below this causes part of the mantle to melt
Volcanoes are most often found along plate boundaries. Here, conditions cause rocks in the upper mantle to melt, either by introducing volatiles or by reducing pressure.
Metamorphic rocks are formed through high pressure and temperature. At tectonic boundaries there are abundances of both.
As an oceanic plate sinks into the mantle at a convergent boundary it causes rocks to melt. Some of the newly formed magma will migrate upward to volcanoes, that have formed along the convergent boundaries, and erupt.
Most volcanoes form at either convergent or divergent plate boundaries. Volcanoes at convergent plate boundaries form when one plate slides under another, taking seawater with it. This causes the rock in the mantle to melt as the melting point drops. This new magma can rise to form volcanoes.At divergent plate boundaries the crust is thing, which lowers pressure on the mantle, causing some material to melt.

At mid-ocean ridges which are divergent plate boundaries.

the correct answer is: For example, as rocks on one side of a transform plate boundary grind and push against the rocks on the other plate, mountain, such as the transverse ranges, can form.
the three types of plate boundaries are : -convergent plate boundaries -divergent plate boundaries -transformed plate boundaries
