What else can I help you with?
Does the hot spot form only under water?
No, a hot spot does not form only underwater. While many well-known hot spots, like the Hawaiian Islands, are located beneath the ocean, hot spots can also occur on land. These geological features are caused by plumes of hot mantle material rising to the Earth's surface, and they can create volcanic activity both under the ocean and on continental landmasses. Examples of land-based hot spots include the Yellowstone Caldera in the United States.
How do igneous rocks form at hot spots?
The lava volcanoe shoots the igneous rocks out of it and then it farts hot spots
What processes found at hot spots will form metamorphic rocks?
Metamorphic rocks at hot spots will form mostly by contact and hydrothermal metamorphism as a result of exposure to heat from magma and interaction with hot water respectively.
Explain how volcanoes that are located at hot spots form?
Volcanoes located at hot spots form by lying directly above columns of hot rock that rise through Earth's mantle. As a tectonic plate moves over a mantle plume, rising magma causes a chain of volcanic islands to form.
Do shield volcanoes form at hot spots?
Yes I am pretty sure.

Can a hot spot form stratovolcano?
Yes. Stratovolcanoes can form over continental hot spots.
What do hot spots form?
flood basalts and volcanoes
How do seamounts normally form?
Over hot spots.
Are volcanoes formed by divergent bounderies?
Some are. Most volcanoes on land are produced by convergent boundaries while others form over hot spots.
Are shield volcanoes hot spots?
Shield volcanoes are not hot spots but they are associated with them. However, such volcanoes can also form at rift zones.
Volcanoes that form far from plate boundaries form as the result as?
Hot spots!
What processes found at hot spots will form metamorphic rocks?
Metamorphic rocks at hot spots will form mostly by contact and hydrothermal metamorphism as a result of exposure to heat from magma and interaction with hot water respectively.
Do hot spots form only under oceanic crust?
No, there is a hot spot underyellowstone
Explain how volcanoes that are located at hot spots form?
Volcanoes located at hot spots form by lying directly above columns of hot rock that rise through Earth's mantle. As a tectonic plate moves over a mantle plume, rising magma causes a chain of volcanic islands to form.
Are hot spots near plate boundaries?
No, Hot Spots can be in the center of plates. An example of a Hot Spot is the Hawaiian Islands.
