Where are the most explosive volcanoes subduction zones or rift zones?
Explosive volcanoes are most common at subduction zones.
How are volcanoes distributed in the map are they scattered evenly or concentrated in zones?
Volcanoes are in concentrated zones.
Is Shield volcanoes found along subduction zones?
Cone volcanoes which are likely to erupt explosively are found at subduction zones. Spreading zones (constructive plate boundaries) and hot spots produce quieter volcanoes because their lava is thinner. The ones at hot spots are shield volcanoes.
How are the volcanoes distributed on the map Are they scattered evenly or concentrated in zones?
They are concentrated in zones - specifically at or near convergent and divergent tectonic plate boundaries. There are a few exceptions that can occur within tectonic plates which are thought to be caused by mantle plumes which create hot spots. An example would be the Hawaiian Island chain which has formed roughly in the centre of the pacific plate.
What are active zones and what happens their in volcanoes?
Its cool

How volcanoes distributed?
Volcanoes are distributed in concentrated zones.
What volcanoes form at spreading zones?
composite volcanoes
Is Shield volcanoes found along subduction zones?
Cone volcanoes which are likely to erupt explosively are found at subduction zones. Spreading zones (constructive plate boundaries) and hot spots produce quieter volcanoes because their lava is thinner. The ones at hot spots are shield volcanoes.
Do Hotspot volcanoes occur along subduction zones.?
No, hotspot volcanoes do not occur along subduction zones. They occur when plates pass over mantle hot spots.
Where do you find most of the zones of earthquakes and volcanoes on Earth's surface?
usually you find most of the zones of earthquakes and volcanoes at a plate boundary.

Where do composite volcanoes occur on?
fault zones

Did volcanoes create humans?
No, volcanoes did not create humans.

No
