What are some evidence of plate tectonics?
The ring of fire.
What is dukono plate tectonics?
Dukono is a volcano located in Indonesia that is part of the Pacific Ring of Fire, a region known for frequent seismic and volcanic activity due to the movement of tectonic plates. The volcano sits on the boundary between the Eurasian Plate and the Pacific Plate, where the Pacific Plate is subducting beneath the Eurasian Plate, leading to the volcanic activity in the region.
How does the theory of plate tectonics explain the formation of the ring of fire?
The plate tectonics explains the locations of volcanoes. Each continent sits on one or more large bases tectonic plates. As the plates move, the continents atop them move, an effect called continental drift.
Volcanoes in the ring of fire are supplied with magma rising from what?
Volcanoes in the Ring of Fire are supplied with magma rising from subduction zones where the oceanic plate is forced beneath the continental plate. The intense heat and pressure cause melting of the mantle rocks, creating magma that eventually rises to the surface and erupts as volcanoes.
Where are volcanos most common?
The ring of fire!! Or the edges of tectonic plates.
What does the Ring of fire have to do with the plate tectonics?
The "Ring of Fire" refers to a string of volcanoes, which create a ring in the Pacific. The relevance to plate tectonics, is that volcanoes are created by two plates coming together and pushing up on each other to create the volcano. The Ring of Fire is evidence of high plate tectonic movement in that particular area and outlines where the plates in that area come together.

What type of plate is the ring of fire?
volcano
What were the two plate tectonics that formed the ring of fire?
There are more than two plates involved in the ring of fire.

Why is Australia not in an earthquake volcano area?
Because Austrailia is NOT on the Ring of Fire. The Ring of Fire is a "ring" where volcanoes and earthquakes mark. Also, Austrailia doesn't touch a plate, but I don't mean a DINNER plate. I mean a LAND plate. Earthquakes moastly happen when two plates overlap and shake the land or a volcano errupts.
What are the crustal features of the land that are formed by plate tectonics?
Crustal features created by plate tectonics include mountains (e.g. Himalayas), trenches (e.g. Mariana trench), volcanoes (see the Ring of Fire), ocean ridges (Mid-Atlantic Ridge) and rift zones (regions lateral to a volcano that lava flows from).
Volcanoes in the ring of fire are supplied with magma rising from what?
Volcanoes in the Ring of Fire are supplied with magma rising from subduction zones where the oceanic plate is forced beneath the continental plate. The intense heat and pressure cause melting of the mantle rocks, creating magma that eventually rises to the surface and erupts as volcanoes.

Is Taal Volcano located near a plate boundary?
Yes, Taal Volcano is located near a plate boundary. It is situated along the western side of the Pacific Ring of Fire, where the Philippine Sea Plate subducts under the Eurasian Plate, leading to volcanic activity in the region.
What is the area around the Pacific ocean called?
Its called the ring of fire because of all the volcanic activity surrounding the Pacific Ocean
