Want this question answered?
There are two plate boundaries that cause volcanoes. They are the divergent and convergent plate boundaries.
Convergent plate boundaries, and in particular, oceanic plate to continental plate collisions, may pose the most risk because of the possibility of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.
Volcanic belts form along the boundaries of the plates where converging boundaries push together and divergent boundaries pull apart. Volcanoes can form because of hot spots in the mantle of the Earth. Solid materials, like magma, that melt in the Earth's crust rise and can form volcanic belts.
Volcanic Mountains are associated with divergent plates.
As far as the Earth is concerned - plate tectonics has not stopped; the plates are still in motion - which is why we get earthquakes and volcanic eruptions along the plate boundaries.
The volcanic landforms at divergent ocean plate boundaries are oceanic ridges.
The volcanic landforms at divergent ocean plate boundaries are oceanic ridges.

Along some plate boundaries.
PLATE BOUNDARIES STUPIDS JK LOL but SERIOUSLY THEY FORM ALONG TECTONIC PLATE BOUNDARIES
Transform boundaries do not produce volcanic activity.
it can be caused by many things, such as hot spots, convergent plate boundaries, and divergent plate boundaries
convergent plate boundaries
Convergent plate boundaries, and in particular, oceanic plate to continental plate collisions, may pose the most risk because of the possibility of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.
A. along convergent plat boundaries. B. At high elevations. C. Away from plate boundaries. D. Along divergent plate boundaries. YOU DECIDE!!!
Volcanic mountain ranges are formed from oceanic-continental convergent-subduction boundaries, much like with volcanic islands. When a plate is subducted, the crust forming this plate is heated and melted creating magma which erupts from the crust and creates volcanic mountain ranges.
Volcanic belts form along the boundaries of the plates where converging boundaries push together and divergent boundaries pull apart. Volcanoes can form because of hot spots in the mantle of the Earth. Solid materials, like magma, that melt in the Earth's crust rise and can form volcanic belts.
