What is Jupiter's moon io cover with?
It is covered in volcanoes. Currently, it is the only known moon in our solar system to have active volcanoes.
Where do large number of volcanoes form?
A large number of volcanoes form along the boundaries of tectonic plates, where the earth's crust is weak and molten rock (magma) can rise to the surface. These boundary regions include areas such as the Ring of Fire in the Pacific Ocean and the East African Rift.
Are any volcanoes on mars acetiv?
There is evidence to suggest that there were active volcanoes on Mars in the past, but currently, there are no active volcanoes on the planet. The most famous volcano on Mars is Olympus Mons, which is the largest volcano in the solar system.

Are there many large cites located near active volcanoes?
Not without a better definition of 'large city' or 'near'. Also, geologists don't have a fixed definition of 'active' for a volcano. There are many notable cites near active volcanoes, such as Naples (Italy) in the shadow of Vesuvius, but many more are to be found around the Pacific rim. The decade volcanoes have been picked out for special attention by scientists. In particular, Indonesia, the Phillipines and Central America have large populations near active volcanoes. According to a European space agency estimate, there are 500 million people living close to active volcanoes. Furthermore, a large enough volcanic eruption will effect a continent, or the whole world- for example, the Icelandic ash cloud (2010) large eruptions ( Mount Pinatubo, 1992) or a supervolcano.
The system of volcanoes surrounding the Pacific ocean?
The system of volcanoes surrounding the Pacific Ocean is known as the Ring of Fire. It is a horseshoe-shaped area where a large number of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions occur in the basin of the Pacific Ocean. The Ring of Fire is home to about 75% of the world's active and dormant volcanoes.
What European country has the best pumice?
Pumice is volcanic rock. Italy probably has the most pumice, since it contains the only active volcanoes on mainland Europe (as well as some of the most dangerous). Iceland also has a large concentration of active volcanoes.
Where else in the solar system are active volcanoes known exist?
Io, Jupiter's moon has active volcanoes of lava from magma caused due to tidal forces from Jupiter and large moons like Ganymede and Callisto. Triton, a moon of Neptune, and Enceladus, a moon of Saturn both are active with Cryrovolcanoes. These are volcanoes that give off water vapor, methane, ethane, ammonia, etc.
