Plate tectonics. As the plates shift on the large ball of molten rock around the core, the surface plates move to form new volcanoes while the old ones are left behind and are nothing but mountains. A good example of this is Olympus Mons the largest volcano in the solar system. Because Mars is so small its core wasnt hot enough to have plate tectonics so the volcano kept growing until the planets core cooled down so much that it is no longer in a molten state.
volcanoes become extinct when the have done at least 50 up to 100 eruptions after that the volcano would have had its timeP.S: if you want more answers on volcanoes just leave a comment i know everything there is to know on volcanoes
Extinct volcanoes are called extinct because they are no longer active and have not erupted in historical times. This term is used to distinguish them from active and dormant volcanoes. Extinct volcanoes are considered to have no potential for future activity.
There might a rare plant that lives in volcanoes and if a volcano erupts it might become extinct
No, it never has volcanoes in the first place.
there are no active volcanoes in Wales. Data suggests that Snowdon was once a Volcano.
We do not know for sure but over geological time millions of volcanoes have become extinct.
Yes, Mercury has extinct volcanoes.

there are three and they are Active Volcanoes, Dormant Volcanoes, and Extinct Volcanoes.

No. The volcanoes of Mars are extinct.

They are formed usually from extinct volcanoes
don't know. think is the climate changes.
Yes, a mountain can become a volcano if tectonic activity causes magma to rise and erupt through the surface. On the other hand, a volcano can also become a dormant or extinct mountain over time if there is no longer any active magma movement.
