When are island arc volcanoes formed?
The island-arc volcanoes are formed from the subduction of an oceanic tectonic plate under another tectonic plate, and often parallel an oceanic trench.
What makes uplifted mountains fault-block mountains and hot-spot volcanoes different from other mountains?
they are different in the way that they are formed.
Why are volcanoes present throughout the terrestrial planets?
The other terrestrial planets are made of the same materials as Earth and formed in the same way, which means they have hot interiors. While Venus and Mars probably lack plate tectonics, they appear to have volcanoes associated with hot spots, which account for some volcanoes on Earth as well.
Where was the first volcano in world?
There is no way of knowing. The first volcanoes would have formed when earth's crust first formed over 4 billion years ago. Apart from some small zircon crystals any features from that long ago have been destroed by geologic processes.
What are Underwater volcanoes called?
Underwater volcanoes are called submarine volcanoes. They form in a similar way as their continental counterparts, that is close to plate boundaries.
What is an easy way to explain how mountains are formed?
An easy way to explain how mountains are formed is through geological activities. Most mountains are formed as a result of volcanic eruptions while others are formed through erosion and other activities.
When are island arc volcanoes formed?
The island-arc volcanoes are formed from the subduction of an oceanic tectonic plate under another tectonic plate, and often parallel an oceanic trench.
How is the way volcanic mountain form different from the way other mountains form .?
Mountains can be formed in a couple of different ways. Different kinds of mountains are formed different ways. There are four different kinds of mountains: Volcanic, erosional, fault-block, and folded. Volcanic mountains, also known as volcanoes, can be standing alone or be part of one big chain of volcanoes. Volcanoes are areas in which lava and magma move to the surface and burst through the crust. Igneous rocks are formed here. Sometimes, hot molten rock spews out of volcanoes. This is earth's way of releasing its internal heat

What is the easy way to understand a girl or wife?
Sorry, not possible. There isn't even a hard way to do this.

they are different in the way that they are formed.
The hawaiia volcanoes formed as a result of?
They are formed in a very different way. Unlike usually Hawaii is on top of a "hotspot" or a very weak spot in the crust where the mantle breaks out, hardens and forms a volcano.
Kabbalahthe easy way to understand the zohar and its terms?
There is no easy way, to truly understand Kabbalah one must know other things. You must first understand the Tanakh and the Talmud. You will risk being so very wrong in your views of Kabbalah if not studied in it's Jewish context.
What is an easy way to remember because?
Big Elephants Can Always Understand Small Elephants
How do you understand the way men think?
That's easy. Men think logically. But I don't think women will ever understand.
Where do volcanos form?
At Fault lines, or places of crustal activity :) Volcanoes usually form near plate boundaries where subduction is occurring. This causes magma from the mantle to rise up onto Earth's surface and form volcanoes. Most volcanoes are formed in this way. Volcanoes can also be formed by hotspots. Magma from the mantle rises through these hotspots and find their way to Earth's surface, forming volcanoes in a chain like Hawaii. Well, volcanoes are usually the land that creates islands like Hawaii. I'm doing homework right now and i'd say an island? If not that, i'd go with the first two answers. :)
