Why do so many of earths volcanoes occur along plate boundries?

Volcanoes often occur along plate boundaries because the movement of tectonic plates leads to the formation of subduction zones, where one plate is forced beneath another. This process creates intense heat and pressure, causing magma to rise to the surface and form volcanoes. Additionally, divergent plate boundaries can also create volcanic activity as magma reaches the Earth's surface through rifts in the ocean floor.


What does movement along plate boundaries cause?

Earthquakes, volcanoes to erupt, mountains, etc...
