Composite cone volcanos are the most common.. Shielding and other types are results from a divergent boundary.

Is Pinatubo is along converging plate boundaries?
Yes. Pinatubo and the other volcanoes of the Philippines are the result of he convergence between the Philippine Plate and the Eurasian plate.
What type of plate boundary does compression occur?
Converging Plate Boundaries
How do mountain building and volcanoes relate to plate motion at converge NT boundaries?
they are both formed by converging plates at a BOUNDARY THAT PUSH UP THE EARTH
Which type of plate boundaries produce volcanoes?
Continental and Oceanic plates.
Is Hekla along converging plate boundaries?
no its along a divering boundary
Do volcanoes form on diverging or converging plate boundaries more?
Most are found on converging
What are two ways volcanoes can forms near converging plate boundaries?
Volcanoes may form where two oceanic plates collide or where an oceanic plate collides with a continental plate.

What is the difference between hotspot volcanoes and volcanoes formed at plate boundaries?
hotspot volcanoes are formed away from the edge of plate boundaries. Plate boundary volcanoes are near a plate boundary
Which type of plate boundaries produce volcanoes?
Continental and Oceanic plates.
Why do volcanoes and earthquakes happen along the Pacific Ring of Fire?
Two continental plates meet here plus a great number of faults
Is Hekla along converging plate boundaries?
no its along a divering boundary
What types of Volcanoes can occur far from any plate boundaries?
Shield volcanoes may occur far from any plate boundaries.
