Most volcanoes form near subduction faults. When one plate slide under the edge of another plate, the edge of it melts under the rocky crust. Eventually, the pool of molten rock and gases that result get enough pressure that they force a pathway to the surface open, releasing the gas and magma as a volcano. However, some volcanoes form from hot spots, which are not well understood and can be located extremely far from the edge of a plate.

The most famous hot spot volcano is Hawaii as all the Hawaiian islands were formed by them.
No, there are no volcanoes in the Bahamas.
Earhquakes and volcanoes are typically found near the edges of tectonic plates.
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.
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.
Japan was mostly formed by volcanoes. Apparently it is located on a fault line though.
because there by the edge of the tectonic plates.
No. Those volcanoes that form on continents usually form near the coast. Most of the world's volcanic activity actually occurs beneath the surface of the ocean.
New Zealand, which is its own country, is located where it is because that is where the lava from the volcanoes formed it and the water movements.
The most famous hot spot volcano is Hawaii as all the Hawaiian islands were formed by them.
it is said that Philippines was formed by volcanoes. it appears that the volcanoes underneath the ocean has the same core of the volcanoes found here in the Philippines
No, there are no volcanoes in the Bahamas.
Yes. There were formed by volcanoes.
Volcanoes were not invented , they are formed in deep soil .
Earhquakes and volcanoes are typically found near the edges of tectonic plates.
hotspot volcanoes are formed away from the edge of plate boundaries. Plate boundary volcanoes are near a plate boundary
landforms are formed by volcanoes?
