What are geological features of volcanic activity?
A volcano erupts because of the presure built up in the mantle. There is so much presure in the mantle because when a continental and oceanic plate converge the oceanic plate gets subducted .When the plate gets subducted the matireal in that plate melts making no more space in the mantle and forcing the magma already in the mantle out to the top of a volcano.aFTER THAT HAPPENS new islands will form on top of the oceanic plate (for example hawii is a growing state becase every year a volcano erups creating new islands.
Is Mount Rainier a continent or oceanic plate?

What type of plate boundary is off the coast of Washington state?
Off the coast of Washington state, there is a convergent plate boundary where the Juan de Fuca Plate is subducting beneath the North American Plate. This tectonic interaction is responsible for significant geological activity, including the formation of the Cascade Range volcanoes and the potential for powerful earthquakes. The subduction zone creates a trench, known as the Cascadia Subduction Zone, which is a key area of study for understanding seismic risks in the region.

Where are volcanic mountains found?
Volcanic mountains are found at tectonic plate boundaries, where one plate is either subducted beneath another or where plates are moving apart. They are also commonly found along seafloor spreading centers or hotspots, where magma rises towards the surface, leading to volcanic activity and the formation of mountains.
