Where do most valcanoes form?
the correct answer is: A: along plate boundaries.
Do most valcanoes form near colliding plate boundaries?
yes
Why can paper cutouts of the continental including the continental margins be pieced together to form a single whole?
Plate tectonics.
What do valcanoes form?
moltein lava moltein lava
Volcanoes most commonly form where?
volcanos mostly form on tectonic plate boundaries and hot stops
What types of plate boundaries have subduction zone?
Convergent boundaries can form between two oceanic plates, between one oceanic plate and one continental plate, or between two continental plates.
Where do most of Earth's volcanoes form?
they are most likely to form were the plates of the earth are most active ... like Hawaii.
How do earthquakes and valcanoes form?
An earthquake is formed when two plates rub agents or hit each other. One of the plates will have to go under the other plate. Valcanoes are formed when there is so much pressure in them then the magma will come out but when the magma comes out we call it lava. If you are not fare enough away from the lava it can kill you, it will distroy or kill anything in it's path.
How do shield valcanoes form?
it happens when u fart on the ground and it forms on the other side of the world
What is a continental arc system?
These arc systems form at collision plate margins where an oceanic plate is being subducted under a continental plate. As the oceanic plate melts, the magma rises and finds cracks in the continental plate above and creates volcanoes. These volcanoes occur all the way along this plate margin. For example the cascade volcanic arc on the north west coast of USA.
How does oceanic crust form at constructive plate margins?
Do you mean spreading centres or oceanic ridges, where the oceanic lithosphere is renewed by hot, less dense rock rising in convection zones.
What is the constructive uses of earthquake?
There are very few constructive uses for an earthquake. One use is that an earthquake allows plate margins to form, however the destruction clearly outweighs any advantages.
