Probably the pacific Plate.
The permanent hot spots are revealed by chains of volcanic islands. The chain itself reveals the direction the plate is moving.

Identify three tectonic settings where volcanoes commonly occur?
hot spots, divergent plate boundaries, and convergent plate boundaries.
Most volcanoes occur were?
Where the plate of the earth collide and pull apart. (If you don't know what I mean by plates of the earth Wikipedia plate tectonics) The only other places volcanoes occur is above hot spots (hot spots are also explained on the plate tectonics Wikipedia page)
Where do shield volcanos occur?
Not at plate boundaries but instead form over hot spots.
Is rhyolite formed at convergent plate boundaries?
That is most often where it occurs, but it can also be found at continental hot spots.
Where do most volcanos occur on earth surface?
They occur at plate boundaries (Pacific rim "Ring of Fire") or at mantle hot spots (Hawaii, Iceland).
Are hot spots near plate boundaries?
No, Hot Spots can be in the center of plates. An example of a Hot Spot is the Hawaiian Islands.
Volcanoes most often occur at plate boundaries and?
At interpolate hot spots
Are geological hot spots collisional?
No. Hot spots are not associated with plate boundaries.

Where is the earth's crust do most volcanoes erupt?
well mostly along plate boundarys but there can be "hot spots" in the mantle that magma come out of. for ex:hawii is right over a hot spot well mostly along plate boundarys but there can be "hot spots" in the mantle that magma come out of. for ex:hawii is right over a hot spot

Do hot spots move along with the pacific plate?
yes
Are there any hot spots on the Arabian plate?
