If you are talking about the Ring of Fire on Planet Earth, it is because The pacific plate is colliding with all of the surrounding plates and either going under or over them. This results in volcanoes which surround the entire Pacific Plate. We call them the Ring Of Fire
It it also called the ring of fire because of the constant flow of volcanic eruptions in the area. one if the recent ones was in Chile (2010). it is on the border of the ring of fire and got a major earthquake. its called that because of the constant flow of lava and earthquakes in the area
its a circle formation, and volcanoes spew out fire (lava) creating the ring (circular) of fire(lava)
The Ring of Fire is the earthquake and volcano zone that circles the Pacific Ocean. Its name is related to the active volcanoes.
The Pacific Ring of Fire is a roughly horseshoe shaped "ring" encircling the Pacific Basin. It marks the area or ring of greatest seismic activity in the world, and it is where the most earthquakes and volcanic activity occurs. The fiery hot magma beneath the Earth's crust appears to be constantly on the move in the Ring of Fire, and this is where it is closest to the surface and pressure build-ups are most likely to released.
This region of the Pacific is known for its high level of volcanic and seismic activity. It is where the main volcanoes in the world are located. It is a roughly horseshoe-shaped ring which extends around the Pacific Basin, from South America, north along the edge of the American continent, over to far eastern Russia and south through Asia, bypassing Australia but continuing over to New Zealand.
See the related link for a diagram.
The "Ring of Fire" is the countries around the Pacific Ocean, where volcanoes are common; Alaska, the west coast of the US, Mexico, central and south America, New Zealand, the Philippines, Japan, the Kamchatka Peninsula.
With all those volcanoes, the name "Ring of Fire" seems perfectly appropriate.
it is like a ring shape around the world where many volcanoes and earthquakes take place
It is a region that is ring shaped with a high prevalence of volcanoes (80% of the ones on land).
It is a region where colliding tectonic plates cause many earthquakes and volcanic eruptions (the volcanic eruptions are the fiery part).
Because of the volcanoes around it and so many fires .
Area Where Earthquakes and Volcanos Are CommonThat area is called the Ring of Fire.
The ring of FIRE! lol
The name of the famous "ring" of volcanoes is the Pacific Ring of Fire. It is a region in the Pacific Ocean where a large number of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions occur due to the movement of tectonic plates.
The ring of fire is a group of volcano's surrounding the pacific. Volcano's are formed by 2 continental plates colliding and a magma chamber was under neath. It is named ring of fire because it is a ring of volcano's.
HAWAII!!!!!!!
ring of fire
It means your name is on fire;)
Area Where Earthquakes and Volcanos Are CommonThat area is called the Ring of Fire.
The ring of FIRE! lol
The Pacific 'Ring of Fire' is its full proper name and so the Ring of Fire is situated around the edges of the Pacific plate.
ring of fire
The name of the famous "ring" of volcanoes is the Pacific Ring of Fire. It is a region in the Pacific Ocean where a large number of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions occur due to the movement of tectonic plates.
Nothing causes the ring of fire it is just a nick name for the area because volcano's and earthquakes have magma and lava involved.

The ring of fire is a group of volcano's surrounding the pacific. Volcano's are formed by 2 continental plates colliding and a magma chamber was under neath. It is named ring of fire because it is a ring of volcano's.
The Ring of Fire is the name of the land that circles the Pacific Ocean. This area has the most volcanic activity in the world.
I do believe it is the "Ring Of Fire."Ring of Fire
