After loss of the hydrogen, helium and other hydrogen-containing gases from early Earth due to the Sun's radiation, primitive Earth was without an atmosphere. The first atmosphere was formed by gases leaking out from the interior of the early Earth, which still goes on today in volcanoes. Without an atmosphere, life would not have formed.

Also, the release of stresses from under the earth via volcanoes also limits stress release in other ways, e.g. earthquakes.

Can extinct volcanoes create new volcanoes?

Well, according to scientific logic, extinct volcanoes can create new volccanoes because if they are in an area that can create more volcanoes and mountains like plate boundaries and hotspots, they can be joined with other newer landforms that grow around them. They can also use the pressure from their volcano to join with others so the pressure builds up.
