What features form a hot spot?
A hot spot is in earths mantle.a hot spot is an area where material from deep within the mantle rises and then melts, forming magma and volcano forms above a hot spot when magma erupts and reaches the surface.

A shield volcano
Is kilauea volcano a hot spot?
Yes, Kilauea volcano in Hawaii is considered a hot spot volcano. This means it is formed by a mantle plume beneath the Earth's crust, creating a source of heat and molten rock that erupts to the surface.
What happens when a volcano moves away from a hot spot?
When a volcano moves away from a hot spot, it typically becomes inactive as the magma supply from the hot spot diminishes. Over time, the volcano may erode and eventually subside, leading to the formation of a seamount if it is underwater. Meanwhile, a new volcano may form over the hot spot as the tectonic plate continues to move, creating a chain of volcanic islands or seamounts. This process is evident in locations like the Hawaiian Islands.
Is the Kilauea volcano a divergent volcano?
No. Kilauea is associated with a hot spot.
Is the volcano Cerro Azul on a subduction zone hot spot or divergent boundary?
