What is an area of volcanic activity that develops above rising plumes of magma?
Areas of volcanic activity that develop above rising plumes of magma are called hot spots.
What is a volcanic term for Dick and Jane's panting dog?
Hot spot. dogs pant when they get Hot and in the movie Fun with Dick and Jane, the dogs name was spot.
Volcanic features like those in Hawaii and Yellowstone are associated with?
Hot Spot volcanoes
In plate tectonic theory what does a hot spot create?
A hot spot will often generate volcanoes. Many hot spots show a chain of extinct volcanoes in one direction, indicating that the plate moved over the stationary hot spot.
What features form at a hot spot.?
They form volcanic mountains by heating magma that breaks through the crust. On the oceanic plates, these crustal hot spots can form chains of volcanic islands such as the Hawaiian Islands.
How does a volcanic hot spot form?
follar
Is a hot spot a tectonic plate boundary?
it is a hot spot for the boundary because it represents the volcanic eruption
What is a geological hot spot?
A geological hot spot is where hot magma rises from the earth's mantle, which creates volcanic activity.
How is a hot shot formed?
A hot spot is an area of persistent volcanic activity
What is an area of volcanic activity that develops above rising plumes of magma?
Areas of volcanic activity that develop above rising plumes of magma are called hot spots.
What is the difference between the volcanic activity that occurs at a hot spot and the volcanic activity at a subduction boundary between an oceanic plate and a continental plate?
The hot spot volcanic activity is not dependent on the subduction and melting of oceanic crust. The hot spot simply appears to be a non-moving place in the Earth's mantle where heat rises from the interior.
What formed the island maui?
A volcanic 'hot spot' in the pacific techtonic plate.
Areas of volcanic activity in the middle of lithospheric plates are called?
Hot Spot

Is Yellowstone National Park in Yellowstone County?
Yellowstone National Park is a nearly 3,500-sq.-mile wilderness recreation area a top a volcanic hot spot. Mostly in Wyoming, the park spreads into parts of Montana and Idaho too. I
What chain of islands are formed because of a hot spot?
A Hot spot is stationary in time and burns though the solid lithosphere creating an island through volcanic eruptions. The lithosphere is separated into plates that move around so if a hot spot occurs under an oceanic plate it forms a island and as the plate moves (and the hot spot does not) it forms a chain of islands (as the plate moves over the hot spot). This is how the Hawaiian chain is formed.
