Volcanoes only occur on the boundaries between tectonic plates, and this is the same for earthquakes. this is why there are many volcanoes and earthquakes in Indonesia and the south East Asia region, but very few any where in Europe or Antarctica. So volcanoes don't occur within a tectonic plate.

Is pyroclastic material likely to form from low- viscosity or high - viscosity?

Pyroclastic material is more likely to form with high viscosity magma.


Which kind of magma is more likely form a volcanic rock?

Mafic magma is more likely to form volcanic rock. Mafic magma is rich in magnesium and iron, and tends to have lower viscosity and higher temperatures, allowing it to flow more easily to the surface and form volcanic rocks such as basalt.


Where is an igneous rock most likely from?

Are pyroclasts formed by basaltic magma or andesitic magma?

Pyroclasts can be formed by both basaltic and andesitic magma. Basaltic magma typically forms pyroclastic materials like scoria and ash, while andesitic magma can produce a variety of pyroclasts including volcanic bombs and pumice. The type of pyroclasts produced depends on factors such as the composition of the magma and the eruption style.

What kind of rock is likely to form where the heat the granitic magma is conducted to the limestone country rock?

The rock which will form will be marble because the limestone undergoes metamorphosis (partial recrystallisation).
