Some volcanoes form over thin places in earths crust called?
Some volcanoes form over thin places in the Earth's crust called hotspots. These hotspots are areas where magma rises to the surface, resulting in volcanic activity.
Are earths active volcanoes scattered randomly?
No, Earth's active volcanoes are not scattered randomly. Most active volcanoes are concentrated along the boundaries of tectonic plates, where volcanic activity is caused by the movement and interaction of these plates. These areas include the Pacific Ring of Fire and mid-ocean ridges.
What is the difference between Compare volcanoes that form on land with volcanoes that form in the ocean.?
Land Volcanoes eat lamas and underwater volcanoes eat camals
Are most volcanoes on land caused by the earths plates moving away form each other?
Sometimes it causes earthquakes, as well as when earths plates move in opposite directions. But yes, volcanoes are also formed when these plates move out of place or away from each other, for example Hawaii. That is an example of plates sliding through the ocean which causes islands.
What kind of plates cause volcanoes?
Plates do not cause volcanoes. Volcanoes generally form at the boundaries between plates. They form at convergent and divergent boundaries.
How do seismic waves form?
By the earths atmosphere
How do rainbows form in earths atmosphere?
rainbow form by the sunlight after the rain
Why do so many of earths volcanoes form along plate boundaries?
Lava easily spews out of plate faults making volcanoes.
Where is the most of the earths carbon located?
In the atmosphere, in the form of carbon dioxide
What was earths atmosphere oceans and continents began to form during a period of earths history called?
precambrian era
Do volcanoes form when one plate is pushed under another plate and melting rock erupts on earths surface?
yes
What kind of igneous rocks form on or near earths surface?
through volcanoes, lava comes out and when it cools it turns into igneous rock.
What kind of igneous rock form on or near the earths surface?
through volcanoes, lava comes out and when it cools it turns into igneous rock.
How do volcanoes affect earths?
Volcanoes can change the surface of the earth in several ways. The lava that is ejected for the volcano may dry and form a new layer of sediment on the ground. The chambers of magma underground can become too pressurized and make a whole new volcanic mountain. Hope that answers your question!
Why is their no atmosphere in the moon?
because the gravitational attraction of moon is very low(about 1/6th of earths') which is not sufficient to hold the air molecules to form atmosphere.
Where is the most of the Earth's carbon located and in what form?
A majority of the earths carbon is located in the ocean.
What form of radiation can be shielded by earths atmosphere?
The form of radiation shielded by atmosphere is Ultraviolet. The Ultraviolet is a part of radiation released by our star sun.
