The tectonic plates move divergent when they move away from each other, convergent when they are colliding with each other, and trasform when they slide past each other.
Plates do not cause volcanoes. Volcanoes generally form at the boundaries between plates. They form at convergent and divergent boundaries.
Volcanoes that form along a mid-ocean ridge are called volcanic islands. These volcanoes occur when the plates move apart to produce gaps which molten lava rises to fill.
Volcanoes usually form between tectonic plates in the earth's crust. Hot molten rock beneath the surface gets pushed up as these plates move, and sometimes large rock formations will form. Volcanoes can form in places that arent on the edge of tectonic plates, however, but the Ring of Fire is where most of the earths volcanoes are concentrated, around the Pacific, North American, and South American plates.
Volcanoes usually form where tectonic plates meet.
When the plates collide they form volcanoes and earthquakes.
Earthquakes and volcanoes form when two plates move against each other along a fault line.
Well, when earths plates move away from each other that's when it happens but move well then NO!
what plate are causing your to to form
Yes

Volcanoes are most likely to form at the edges of the tectonic plates.
Volcanoes form when tectonic plates move on the surface of the earth. It occurs at transform plate boundaries. Tectonic plates are always moving slowly, but when an oceanic plate converges with a continental plate, it creates a Subduction zone known where volcanoes are found.
