The convergent mountains usually come in ranges, rather than solitary peaks.

Is Mount Vesuvius near a hot spot divergent or convergent plate boundary?

Vesuvius is associated with a convergent boundary between the African Plate and the Eurasian Plate.


Which of these convergent plate boundaries are active volcanoes not likely to be located?

Arabian Plate and Eurasian plate


What type of plate boundary causes volcanic eruptions?

There are two plate boundaries that cause volcanoes. They are the divergent and convergent plate boundaries.


How does plate tectonics play a role in the formation and eruption and volcanoes?

Volcanoes and volcanic activity occurs at plate boundaries. Especially when one plate over rides another plate - convergent boundary. As a result of pressure, friction, and plate material melting in the mantle, earthquakes and volcanoes are common near convergent boundaries.


What high mountain ranges without volcanoes are built at which type of plate boundary?

High mountain ranges without volcanoes are built at convergent continental plate boundaries. These vary greatly from divergent boundaries which cause volcanoes to form.


What is a fault of a volcano?

A volcano is not a type of fault. Volcanoes can be found at convergent and divergent plate boundaries and away from plate boundaries at hot spots.


Which type of plate boundaries produce volcanoes?

Continental and Oceanic plates.


What boudaries produces volcanoes?

Convergent boundaries produce volcanoes. Volcanoes form when an oceanic plate and a continental plate converge, causing the oceanic plate to subduct. The subduction causes a magma chamber to form which feeds the volcano when it erupts.


What type of fault is a volcano?

A volcano is not a type of fault. Volcanoes can be found at convergent and divergent plate boundaries and away from plate boundaries at hot spots.


Where most volcanoes are located compared to where plate boundaries are located?

Most volcanoes are located along tectonic plate boundaries, particularly at convergent and divergent boundaries. At convergent boundaries, one plate subducts beneath another, leading to magma formation and volcanic activity. At divergent boundaries, plates pull apart, allowing magma to rise and create new crust, often resulting in volcanic eruptions. Additionally, some volcanoes, known as hotspot volcanoes, can form away from plate boundaries due to mantle plumes.


What boundaries are the 3 types of volcanoes located on?

Divergent and convergent plate boundaries. You can look up more info on google.


What plate boundary are volcanoes formed at?

Volcanoes can form at three places-1. Divergent boundaries2. Convergent boundaries (oceanic-oceanic and oceanic-continental)2. Above hot spots
