No one know if there are active volcanoes on Venus. There are old ones. There is no evidence of plate motion on Venus.

What causes volcanoes to erupt under earths surface?
mostly earthquakes or plate tectonic movement.
Are earthquakes and volcanoes related?
Earthquakes can cause a volcano to erupt.
Are geysers volcanoes?
No, geysers send up fountain like jets of water and steam. Volcanoes erupt lava.
Do earthquakes have a vent?
No. Volcanoes have vents. Vents are holes though which ash, gas, and lava can erupt.
Do hot spot volcanoes tend to erupt more explosively than other volcanoes?
The source is not as important as the gas content and viscosity. For example, Kilauea in Hawaii doesn't erupt very explosively; it is just a fire fountain. The more explosive volcanoes are those with a blocked magma chamber that builds pressure under a solid surface. Hotspot volcanoes tend to be less explosive because most are on the seafloor.
Do volcanoes only erupt on earth?
No, Astronomers have discovered erupting volcanoes on Venus as well as Earth
Do tsunamis erupt?
No. Volcanoes erupt.
How many volcanoes can erupt at once?
An unlimited amount of volcanoes can erupt at once
How many volcanoes erupt yearly?
About 60 volcanoes erupt each year.
Do volcanoes erupt at the end of the year?
Volcanoes can erupt at any time of year.
What causes volcanoes to erupt under earths surface?
mostly earthquakes or plate tectonic movement.
How can volcanoes errupt under water?
The tectonic plates shifting is what causes an underwater volcano to erupt. Plate shifting is also the cause of tsunamis and earthquakes.
What climates do volcanoes need to be in to erupt?
Volcanoes can erupt in any climate. Climate does not affect a volcano's ability to erupt.
What type of volcano does and does not erupt?
Active volcanoes erupt. Dormant volcanoes are quiet - but may erupt again some day. Extinct volcanoes have "closed up shop" for good, and will never erupt again.
Why do volcanoes effect planes?
After volcanoes erupt, a huge cloud of ash rises above it. This ash cloud causes problems for aeroplanes in mid flight.
Are volcanoes considered volcanoes when they erupt?
Yes, they are.
What are the two ways volcanoes erupt?
there lots of diffrent ways slow steady fast .
