Its actually sitting on top of a huge super-volcano.
They don't. Earth averages about 50 volcanic eruptions on land each year in many locations around the world. Yellowstone has not experienced a volcanic eruption in thousands of years. This activity is attributed to a n area of especially hot mantle called a hot spot melting rock beneath the crust. Hawaii is notable for the presence of Kilauea, which has had a single eruption ongoing since 1983 and so attracts a great deal of attention. This activity is dues to a hot spot. Japan sees a fair amount of volcanic activity due to the convergence of several of earth's tectonic plates. Hawaii, Japan, and Mount Etna in Sicily are probably the most volcanically active sites in developed nations. Other volcanic zones with high activity include the Andean volcanic belt in western South America, Indonesia, the Aleutian Arc in Alaska, and the East African Rift.
The inhabitants of Hawaii would not have their island home without volcanic activity.
Because the Hawaiian Islands are products of volcanic activity and the area is still highly active, so the actual workings of volcanoes can be studied.
There is not more than 500 volcanoes in alabama that's. Impossible if there was that much the entirre land of alabama would be covereed with volcanoes there is an estimite to about 2 or 4 volcanoes but most of them aren't active any more
Volcanic Glass Is Worth 6 Dollars US Per Ounce. So Just Weigh And Calculate.
No. The moon lost its volcanic activity because it is much smaller than Earth and so lost its internal heat more quickly.
Yellowstone national park is a volcanic caldera so there you can see many geysers there.

Volcanic activity.
No, for two reasons. First, Pluto is so far away and so tiny that little is known about it. Second, Pluto is so cold that there could not be any volcanic activity.
Yes, Iceland has volcanic activity every five years or so on average. It's just mild activity and rarely is it anything like what Eyjafjallajokull has been.
nope no volcanic activity on Jupiter because it's a gas giant so is Saturn, Neptune, and Uranus. Just remember that the planets behind the belt are all gas giants and none of them have volcanic activity because there made out of gas!

more volcanic activity
Rocks on the sea floor are very young because most have resulted from recent volcanic activity. Volcanic activity is constantly erupting on the ocean's floor and creating new rocks.
when there were no wolves in yellowstone park yellowstone park had to much elks so when the wolves arrived again the wolves killed all the elks
