Oceanic plates are much thinner than continental ones. Thus, their surface is closer to the upper mantle, which is where the magma in volcanoes comes from, and it is easier for lava to reach that distance up to form volcanoes.
There are more under water than on land.
there are estimated 80 active volcanoes iin Japan. trust me babes
There are more than 1500 active volcanoes on earth. We currently know that 80 or more are under ocean's, these volcanoes can't produce magma just huge explosions.
A planet with fewer active volcanoes would have more craters, as the ash and lava from volcanoes will cover existing craters.
Yes. There are more than 500 active volcanoes on land and probably three times as many under the ocean.
A planet with active volcanoes will have fewer craters, as older craters will tend to be buried by lava and ash.
