Volcanic arcs are usually island arcs off the coast of a continent, while volcanic mountain ranges are usually inland inside a continent. But the volcanoes of a volcanic island arc do form an undersea volcanic mountain range. So to some extent the difference is mostly a matter of terminology.
The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) is the government institution responsible for monitoring volcanic activities in the country. Its acronym stands for Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology.

A volcanic lake is a cap of meteoric water over the vent of an active volcano.
No, Ibiza is not volcanic. The island is part of the Balearic archipelago in the Mediterranean Sea and does not have any active volcanoes.
Antarctica does not have any active volcanoes. While it does have the potential for volcanic activity due to its geology, the thick ice cover suppresses any volcanic eruptions, making it the only continent without active volcanoes.
Lanzarote is the 4th largest island in the Canary Islands. It is volcanic in origin and about 125 kilometres from the nearest continent. It does not "belong" to any continent.

Volcanic arcs are usually island arcs off the coast of a continent, while volcanic mountain ranges are usually inland inside a continent. But the volcanoes of a volcanic island arc do form an undersea volcanic mountain range. So to some extent the difference is mostly a matter of terminology.

Antarctica is the only continent not owned by any nation. It is governed by the Antarctic Treaty System, which designates it as a scientific preserve and prohibits military activities.
Australia. It has volcanoes, but they are currently inactive.
New Zealand did not come from a continent. It grew out of the ocean where it is as a result of volcanic activity.
The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) is the government institution responsible for monitoring volcanic activities in the country. Its acronym stands for Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology.
Erosion can be caused by various factors such as water, wind, ice, and human activities like deforestation and mining. Erosion is not caused by volcanic eruptions; instead, volcanic eruptions lead to the deposition of volcanic ash and lava flow.
