Oceanice oceanic has a trench, which is usually the deepest part of the ocean. It also has a volcanic island. That is how Islands are found in the center of oceans. oceanic convergent has similar features but do not have islands but instead volcanic arc on the continents.
Where are most tropical islands located?
An Oceanic Ridge
How do divergent boundaries of oceanic crust form islands?
Collisions of plates

The Aleutian Islands
what are examples for subduction?
An oceanic plate can descend beneath another oceanic plate - Japan, Indonesia, and the Aleutian Islands are examples of this type of subduction. Alternately, an oceanic plate can descend beneath a continental plate - South America, Central America, and the Cascade Volcanoes are an example of this type of subduction.

Are islands a part of the continent?
Some Islands are parts of continents (high points in the continental shelf) eg The British Isles. Some Islands are parts of continents that have become detached during continental drift (eg Seychelles or Madagascar) Some Islands are unrelated to continents and result from oceanic plate processes (eg Hawaii). Some Islands are a result of the interaction between continental and oceanic plates (eg some of the Caribbean Islands, Japan and Cyprus).

What are the two different types of islands?
The two main types of islands are continental islands, which are formed from the same landmass as a nearby continent, and oceanic islands, which are formed from underwater volcanic activity or coral reefs. Continental islands tend to be larger and closer to continents, while oceanic islands are typically smaller and more isolated.
