Most melts on earth originate from plate boundaries. These are areas where there is decompression melting or hydrous melting because of subduction zones.

What layer of the earth does most magma originate?
mantle
Where does magma originate?
Magma originates from within the earth's interior; in the crust or mantle.
Where do mafic and felsic magma originate?
Felsic is a term that means that a rock contains types of silica. Fesic magma is magma that is high in silica particles and low in iron particles.
What are large rising bodies of magma not at plate boundaries called?
A large rising body of magma is called a magma plume they originate from the mantle. Plate boundaries are found at the edge of the lithospheric plates and are of three types, convergent, divergent and conservative.
Why is the magma ventand creater is the most important part of an volcano?
why is the creater and the magma and the ventard the most important part of a volcano?

Where does granite and basalt come from?
Both originate as molten magma but in the case of granite the magma is acidic and in the case of basalt the magma is basic.

What is most magma?

What type of magma is most likely under the crust?
magma
What does most Most magma form from?
Magma is the result of partial melting of crustal rocks. It is a eutectic melt product.
Why is the magma ventand creater is the most important part of an volcano?
why is the creater and the magma and the ventard the most important part of a volcano?
What are convection current and how are they formed?
Convection currents in the earth originate in the mantle. The liquid moves in a circle pattern as the hotter magma rises and the cooler magma falls. This can also be observed in any fluid material, gases or liquids.
Where is most of the magma at?
Under the crust.
Most magma forms in?
asthenosphere
