its because mars is more tectonically active
Mars is the planet that is rust-colored and home to the largest volcanoes in the solar system, including Olympus Mons. These volcanoes are much larger than those found on Earth, with some reaching heights of up to 13.6 miles (22 km).
Ice volcanoes on Neptune, also called cryovolcanoes, are theorized to be much larger than those on Earth, possibly reaching heights of tens of kilometers. However, because Neptune is a gas giant planet with a thick atmosphere and no solid surface, these features have not been directly observed.
Earth's active volcanoes are located along the boundaries of tectonic plates, known as the Ring of Fire, which encircles the Pacific Ocean. Other areas with active volcanoes include areas like Iceland, East Africa, and Indonesia due to tectonic activity within those regions.
Earthquakes because they have no warning, and effect much larger ares of land.Volcanoes aren't the answer because you can get out of the waymuch faster and most of the time you will have a warning (sign) before it actually happens.---- Date: March, 20, 2013 ----
Yes, Mercury has volcanoes, but they are not active like those on Earth. The planet's internal heat also comes from its cooling core and radioactive decay.

Most volcanoes on Earth are associated with boundaries of tectonic plates while those that we have seen on other planets are probably from hot spots. Earth's volcanoes also seem more prone to explosive eruptions, primarily due to the abundance of water on Earth.

Like Earth, Venus has volcanic mountains and other features that are probably made of thin, runny lava, on Venus the volcanos sometimes spew out sulfur into the atmosphere, although there is no proof Venus is volcanically active, scientists believe it most likely is. On Mars there are large shields of volcanoes similar to those on Venus and Earth,as well as cone-shaped volcanoes and lava flows, some of these volcaoes are significantly bigger than Earth's volcanoes, such as Olympus Mons, which is 3 times the size of Mount Everest, but none of these are volcanically active.

Almost 0%. The only parts of the mantel which cover the earth are those areas where volcanoes are actively pushing lava to the surface. The earth is covered by what is referred to as the "Earth's Crust."
Every planet has a different terrain and a different set of tectonic plates.
Yes, Mercury has volcanoes, but they are not active like those on Earth. The planet's internal heat also comes from its cooling core and radioactive decay.
The youngest rocks in the crust are found on and near active volcanoes, such as those at mid-ocean ridges.
Seismic events on the moon are naturally called moonquakes, not earthquakes. They occur, but are less common and less powerful than those on Earth. The moon has no volcanoes since the magma that was under its surface long ago solidified.
The Earth and Io a moon of Jupiter. This does not include those moons with erupting geysers.
