An underwater volcano can cause pillow basalts and rare tsunamis. Underwater volcanoes are formed by hot spots in the Earth's mantle.
Underwater volcanoes and mountains can form at both convergent and divergent boundaries.
Submerged underwater volcanoes are referred to as submarine volcanoes or seamounts. These volcanic structures can be found on the ocean floor and may rise from the seabed to create underwater mountains.
Yes, seamounts are underwater mountains that originate from volcanic activity. They are formed by the accumulation of lava emitted by undersea volcanoes over time.
Underwater volcanoes are called submarine volcanoes. They form in a similar way as their continental counterparts, that is close to plate boundaries.
No, not all volcanoes are found above ground. While many volcanoes form prominent mountains or hills, there are also underwater volcanoes, known as submarine volcanoes, which erupt beneath the ocean's surface. These underwater eruptions can create new landforms, such as islands, and contribute to the formation of mid-ocean ridges. Additionally, some volcanoes may exist as volcanic features on the ocean floor without ever breaking the surface.
Underwater volcanoes and mountains can form at both convergent and divergent boundaries.

Yes and a great many of the earth's volcanoes are underwater.
