Best Answer

Io is the innermost of the four large moons (Galilean moons) of Jupiter. Its closeness to Jupiter means that its surface is in a constant state of flex, the gravity from Jupiter distorts its surface, generating heat and flaws in the surface of the moon. This means that volcanoes are a common occurrence on Io.

Which of the Galilean moons has volcanic activity?

Of the four main moons of Jupiter called the Galilean Moons, only two are geologically active. Io is the most clearly geologically active with hundreds of volcanoes that frequently erupt. Europa is the second moon that's geologically active as evidenced by its smooth icy surface suggesting a warm liquid ocean underneath.
