There are actually around 750 in each ocean, but even more of volcanoes in the Pacific Ocean, which is known as the biggest ocean.
There are as many as 750 volcanoes that are in each of the oceans. The Pacific Ocean has the world's largest underwater volcano called Tamu Massif.

Yes there are many volcanoes on the ocean floor. Many are very active and there are sea animals that live around them.
We don't know. We can only catalog the volcanoes we know about. There are probably more dormant volcanoes, especially under the ocean, that we haven't found yet.

At an ocean ocean convergent boundary, there will be a formation of volcanoes.

The Pacific Ocean has a ring of volcanoes known as the Ring of Fire. This area is located in the Pacific Ocean basin and is characterized by frequent earthquakes and volcanic activity due to plate tectonics.
Volcanoes affect the ocean floor by adding sediment to the ocean basin (bottom of the ocean.) Hope I helped!
Why do scientists look to the ocean floor to research the mantle? Because magma from the mantle flows out of active volcanoes on the ocean floor. These underwater volcanoes have given scientists many clues about the composition of the mantle.
They can be called the Ring of Fire.
