What else can I help you with?
Volcanoes most often occur at plate boundaries and?
At interpolate hot spots
What are four things that can happen at plate boundaries?
volcanoes,mid ocean ridges,fold mountains and hot spots
Why do you think earthquakes and volcanoes are located on plate boundaries?
Earthquakes are caused by tectonic plates hitting each other and it is easier for lava to flow through.
How is volcanic activity associated with plate boundaries?
90% of volcanic activity on earth occurs at either convergent or divergent plate boundaries. The remaining 10% occurs at hot spots, which are not associated with plate boundaries.
Why does the United Kingdom not get earthquakes?
Active volcanoes tend to occur at plate boundaries or in rare cases where there are hot spots in the mantle (such as the one responsible for the volcanism creating the Hawaiian island chain). The UK is not located near a plate boundary or a mantle hotspot! As for large earthquakes, these also tend to occur at plate boundaries and as we have stated above, the UK isn't located near one...
What plate boundaries do hot spots from?
Hot spots are not directly associated with plate boundaries. Hot spots are areas of intense volcanic activity that are thought to be caused by mantle plumes rising from deep within the Earth's mantle, creating a hotspot of magma beneath the Earth's crust. These hotspots can occur in the middle of a tectonic plate and are responsible for creating volcanic island chains, such as the Hawaiian Islands.
What plate boundaries or hot spots is the cause of Mt Vesuvius?
suck it nerds
Volcanoes that form far from plate boundaries form as the result as?
Hot spots!
Volcanoes most often occur at plate boundaries and?
At interpolate hot spots
What causes different kinds of volcanic mountains?
it can be caused by many things, such as hot spots, convergent plate boundaries, and divergent plate boundaries
What is a fault of a volcano?
A volcano is not a type of fault. Volcanoes can be found at convergent and divergent plate boundaries and away from plate boundaries at hot spots.
What type of fault is a volcano?
A volcano is not a type of fault. Volcanoes can be found at convergent and divergent plate boundaries and away from plate boundaries at hot spots.
What volcanoes are located are located along plate boundaries?
Which volcanoes are located at hot spots
Are geological hot spots collisional?
Geological hot spots are not typically collisional. Hot spots are areas where magma rises from deep within the Earth's mantle to the surface, creating volcanic activity. Collisional plate boundaries, on the other hand, occur when tectonic plates converge and collide, leading to mountain formation and earthquakes.
Is a hot spot found at converging oceanic plates?
Hot spots are usually found away from plate boundaries.
Where do most volcanos occur on earth surface?
They occur at plate boundaries (Pacific rim "Ring of Fire") or at mantle hot spots (Hawaii, Iceland).
What boundary is it when a volcano formed?
Volcanoes can form at convergent boundaries, divergent boundaries, and at hot spots away from any plate boundary.
