What else can I help you with?
How do volcanic mountains form at locations that are not near plate boundaries?
They are explained as 'hot spots' in the Earth's mantle, such as Yellowstone and the Hawaiian Island Chain, where heat from the Earth's interior is rising in a suspected current to the always moving crust.
What features form at a hot spot.?
They form volcanic mountains by heating magma that breaks through the crust. On the oceanic plates, these crustal hot spots can form chains of volcanic islands such as the Hawaiian Islands.
How do igneous rocks form at hot spots?
The lava volcanoe shoots the igneous rocks out of it and then it farts hot spots
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 hot spots form on land?
Yes they do. Hot spots form underwater too. The three types of island arcs are Pangomia, geomgloic, and istheimusguru. I hope I helped a lot.
How do seamounts normally form?
Over hot spots.
What is the area that creates volcanic mountains?
There are two areas where volcanic mountains often form. They are subduction zones and hot spots.
Can a hot spot form stratovolcano?
Yes. Stratovolcanoes can form over continental hot spots.
How do volcanic mountains form at locations that are not near plate boundaries?

What kind of mountains form from hot spots?
Hot spot volcanos. As these age they can become island chains and eventually subsurface seamount arcs if the hot spot is in the ocean.
What features form at a hot spot.?

How do igneous rocks form at hot spots?

When mountains are formed such as by uplift or hot spots away from a convergence they are called?
Mid-plate.
What type of mountain is formed due to collision due to two different kinds of plates?
Volcanic mountains over hot spots in the mantle. Fault-block
What landforms can form independent of plate boundaries?
Some landforms that can form independent of plate boundaries include volcanoes that form over hot spots in the middle of plates, rift valleys that form at divergent boundaries within plates, and dome mountains that form from uplift and erosion processes.
What do hot spots form?
flood basalts and volcanoes
What processes found at hot spots will help form the following rocks?
Metamorphic rocks are formed by continental plates colliding. These are Himalayan or Alps mountains. Sedimentary rock is also made into mountains when it is pushed up where tectonic plates collide.
