Flood basalts.
Mercury does not have any active volcanoes. However, its surface shows evidence of ancient volcanic activity in the form of volcanic plains and lava flows.

No, mercury's craters are not volcanic. They are formed due to impacts from meteoroids or asteroids hitting the surface of the planet. Volcanic activity on Mercury has been minimal compared to other planetary bodies.
There is no evidence of volcanic activity on Saturn itself. However, some of Saturn's moons, such as Enceladus and Titan, show evidence of past or present volcanic activity with features like ice volcanoes or cryovolcanoes releasing water or methane rather than molten rock.
Volcanic activity is primarily associated with the lithosphere. This is because volcanoes form at tectonic plate boundaries where magma can rise to the surface, leading to volcanic eruptions and the release of gases and lava onto the Earth's surface.
can be seen at the surface in the form of volcanic activity... novanet
No. Jupiter is a gas planet. It has no surface on which volcanoes might form.
Scientists believe that the interior structure of Mercury includes a metallic core, an intermediate rocky layer, and a thin brittle crust. Surface features indicate that volcanic activity once existed at the surface
Earthquakes can indicate volcanic activity because magma moving beneath the Earth's surface can generate seismic activity. As magma rises and interacts with the surrounding rock, it can create pressure and stress that lead to earthquakes. By monitoring the location and intensity of these earthquakes, scientists can infer the movement of magma and potential volcanic activity.
The surface of Callisto is heavily cratered and extremely old. It does not show any sign of volcanic activity.

none. Mars Earth and Venus have relatively thick atmospheres. it was long assumed that Mercury did not have an atmosphere but a very thin atmosphere around the planet. Mercury's atmosphere is composed of: 42%O2 29%Na 22%H2 06%He 00.5%K
No, and it has no surface. It is a gas planet
