What else can I help you with?
How were Mars' volcanoes formed?
Since Mars lacks plate tectonics, the volcanoes were probaly formed by hot spots. These are areas where extra hot mantle material wells up and collects beneath the crust where some of it melts and rises through the crust to form volcanoes.
Is plate tectonics the plural form of plate tectonics?
Yes, the singular form is normally plate tectonic or tectonic plate so the plural would be plate tectonics or tectonic plates. Dumb crap.
How are subduction form?
by plate tectonics
What is the connection between volcanoes and plate tectonics?
Volcanoes form as a result of plate tectonics. When plates are pushing, pulling, and grinding they cause volcanoes. Magma that reaches the surface of the earth produces volcanoes where plates collide or spread apart. Sources: My science book and my great brain.
What do coverging plate tectonics form?
Fault lines.

What is the study of lithospheric plates called?
The study of lithospheric plates is called plate tectonics. It focuses on the movement and interactions of the Earth's lithospheric plates, which form the outer shell of the Earth. Plate tectonics help explain processes like earthquakes, volcanoes, and mountain building.
How do plate tectonics contribute to global warming?
Plate tectonics form volcanoes, which release large amounts of water vapour everyday. Water vapour contribute the most to global warming. When volcanoes erupt, large amounts of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide are released into the air.
Is plate tectonics the plural form of plate tectonics?
Yes, the singular form is normally plate tectonic or tectonic plate so the plural would be plate tectonics or tectonic plates. Dumb crap.

What form does the crust do?
plate tectonics.

What do plate tectonics have to do with earthquakes?
When tectonic plates come together or go under or over each other, forms a volcano. that what tectonic plates do form volcanoes!!! Thank you
Volcanoes are able to form in several different plate-tectonic settings?
The type of tectonics where volcanoes occur are continental rift volcanism, hot spot, and continental volcanic arc. The other tectonics are subduction zones and rift valleys on a continental crust.
What do coverging plate tectonics form?
Fault lines.
Why do oceanic hot-spot volcanos often form a long line of volcanic island?
Because the lithospheric ocean plate moves with plate tectonics over the stationary mantle based hot spot, forming a series of volcanoes.
What are two Ways volcanoes Form near converging plate boundaries?
Volcanoes may form where two oceanic plates collide or where an oceanic plate collides with a continental plate.
