Where are volcanoes more likely to occur and what is the explanation for these patterns?

Indonesia is the most active area, but it all centers on the movements of the Earths plates along the pacific ring of fire. To pick a time that they will erupt is difficult at any rate, as volcanoes have patterns but they aren't exact ones, and hundreds of years, if not thousands can go by before they erupt again. Again Indonesia has the most active volcanoes on earth.

Where are earthquakes or volcanoes likely to occur?
The answer is that earthquakes and volcanoes are most frequent along Tectonic plate boundaries, these are the natural pieces that the continents and oceans are on.
What place in the world do volcanoes occur?
Volcanoes mostly occur in areas where tectonic plates meet. Most of the active volcanoes in the world occur in what is called the Ring of Fire around the edges of the Pacific Ocean.
Where do volcanoes occur the most?
The most volcanoes occur around the Pacific Ocean, in an area called the Ring of Fire.
Why do so many of earths volcanoes occur along plate boundries?
Volcanoes occur near plate boudaries because volcanoes need water to erupt.
What sphere do volcanoes occur in?

What is the more likely explanation for the close similarity across the genomes of living organisms?
Given that these similarities and the differences occur in patterns of nested hierarchies, common descent is the more likely explanation.

Where are volcanoes likely to occur in the US?

Why are volcanoes and earthquakes found together?
The majority of earth's volcanoes and earthquakes occur near the boundaries of tectonic plates. Therefore, an area that has volcanoes is likely to be prone to earthquake as well.
What seasons do volcanoes occur?
volcanoes can occur in any season

volcanoes,earthquakes,mountains
What do people use to know when an earthquake is going to occur?
eh, psychics? We don't know when they're going to occur in advance, they can only look at patterns of when faults slip or volcanoes erupt and guesstimate.
