The most famous hot spot volcano is Hawaii as all the Hawaiian islands were formed by them.
Yes, the volcanoes of Hawaii are associated with a hotspot in the Earth's mantle, known as the Hawaiian hotspot. This hotspot is not directly connected to the East Pacific Rise, which is a separate tectonic plate boundary where new oceanic crust is formed. The hotspot remains stationary while the Pacific Plate moves over it, creating a chain of volcanoes as the plate migrates.
Mount Adatara is associated with a convergent plate boundary, as are all of Japan's volcanoes.
volcanoes takes place in two ways which are at the hotspot and at the point of weakness which are fault or crack
False. Hotspot volcanoes form above mantle plumes, which are localized upwellings of hot mantle material. Subduction zone volcanoes form due to the subduction of one tectonic plate beneath another, resulting in magma generation due to the melting of the subducted plate.
No, hotspot volcanoes do not occur along subduction zones. They occur when plates pass over mantle hot spots.
Hotspot volcanoes form over a fixed hotspot in the mantle, resulting in a chain of volcanoes as the tectonic plate moves over it, like the Hawaiian Islands. Volcanoes at plate boundaries are formed by the interaction of tectonic plates, where one plate is forced under another (subduction) or plates move apart (divergence), creating volcanic activity along the boundary, like the Ring of Fire.

When lava goes threw crust it forms a hotspot (valcano)

They usually exist on a hotspot. An example: Mauna Loa, Hawaii
Yes - volcanoes invariably have a hotspot beneath them - 'feeding' the crater with magma.
False. Hotspot volcanoes form above mantle plumes, which are localized upwellings of hot mantle material. Subduction zone volcanoes form due to the subduction of one tectonic plate beneath another, resulting in magma generation due to the melting of the subducted plate.
The Hawaiian Islands formed over a hotspot in the Pacific Ocean, where magma formed a column and rose through the Earth's crust, causing volcanic activity. The hotspot stays fixed as the Earth's plates move over it, which is why, currently, no island but the Big Island experiences volcanic eruptions.
Hotspot volcanoes are usually found away from tectonic plate boundaries, such as the Hawaiian Islands or Yellowstone National Park. These volcanoes are a result of mantle plumes that rise through the Earth's crust, creating volcanic activity in the middle of a tectonic plate.
