Volcanoes form as a result of plate tectonics. When plates are pushing, pulling, and grinding they cause volcanoes. Magma that reaches the surface of the earth produces volcanoes where plates collide or spread apart.

My science book and my great brain.
Volcanoes require a break in the lithosphere to allow the subsurface material - both gases and magma - to flow through to create volcanic activity. Tectonics provides these breaks. Where one tectonic plate subducts under another the fault tends to be a good place for magma to leak through and to form volcanoes - which is why the "ring of fire" around the Pacific has so many volcanoes. Most other volcanoes occur along tectonic boundaries.
Tectonic plates shift, and rub together to create earthquakes.
Volcanoes erupt using magma that the plates float on, and the magma turns into lava.
Volcanoes are formed because of the movements of plate tectonics. See related questions below.
Almost all volcanoes are located on a plate boundary.
valcones r not good
yes
No. Mars does not have plate tectonics. The volcanoes on Mars are the result of hot spots.
Plate tectonics can cause volcanoes, earthquakes, and underwater earthquakes can cause tsunamis.

One connection between earthquakes and volcanoes is that they all have to do with Plate Tectionics and they destroy things
The only terrestrial planet known to experience plate tectonics is Earth. Plate tectonics is the movement and interaction of large sections of Earth's lithosphere, and it plays a vital role in shaping the planet's surface and driving geological activity such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.
Volcanoes don't help plate tectonics; volcanoes are the result of plate tectonics.

Monkey Pants, YEAH
how are volcanoes and the process of plate tectonics related
the plate tectonics will be flat and no more volcanoes.
because of these buts
Plate tectonics can cause volcanoes, earthquakes, and underwater earthquakes can cause tsunamis.
There is practically no connection between plate tectonics, air pollution and global warming.
volcanoes can occur
