What else can I help you with?
Volcanoes that form along a mid-ocean ridge occur a diverging plate boundary?
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.
Do volcanoes occur in oceans and earthquakes occur on land?
Earthquakes and volcanoes both occur in land and ocean. =)
Where do volcanoes occur the most?
The most volcanoes occur around the Pacific Ocean, in an area called the Ring of Fire.
Volcanoes that form along mid-ocean ridges occur at?
Volcanoes that form along mid-ocean ridges occur at divergent tectonic plate boundaries, where two plates are moving away from each other. Magma rises to the surface through the cracks created by the diverging plates, resulting in the formation of underwater volcanoes.
What type of plate boundary to volcanoes not occur?
Volcanoes typically do not occur at transform plate boundaries where two plates slide past each other horizontally. These boundaries are characterized by intense tectonic forces that do not provide the conditions necessary for magma to rise to the surface and form volcanoes.
Can a volcanoes form in the ocean?
yes
What would happen if volcanic eruptions continued to occur on the sea floor?
There are volcanoes along the floor of the ocean that form a trench. When these volcanoes erupt, it can cause tectonic movements.
What types of volcanoes form at mid-ocean ridges?
Rift volcanoes.
Do volcanoes form along mid ocean ridges where two plates move together?
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.
Why can volcanoes be constructive and a destructive?
Volcanoes can be constructive when they form islands and mid-ocean ridges
What is the range around the Pacific ocean where volcanoes mainly occur?
The Ring of Fire
What are volcanoes and earthquakes likely to occur?
If you mean "where" earthquakes and volcanoes are most likely to occur it is in what's called the "ring of fire" which is the coastal ring around the Pacific Ocean.
