A composite volcano is most likely to form where?
A composite volcano is most likely to form at subduction zones where an oceanic plate is being subducted beneath a continental plate. The interaction between the two plates causes magma to rise, leading to the formation of a composite volcano due to the explosive eruptions caused by the high silica content in the magma.
What plate boundary is a volcano most likely to form at?
A volcano is most likely to form at a convergent plate boundary, where two tectonic plates collide, forcing one plate to subduct beneath the other. The subducted plate melts and rises to the surface, forming a volcano.
What type of volcano is most likely to form fluid lava?
A shield volcano is most likely to form fluid lava because it is characterized by gentle sloping sides and eruptions of low-viscosity magma. This type of volcano typically produces basaltic lava that flows easily and spreads over large distances.
What type of volcano is most likely to form when magma is high in silica?
Lava high in silica (granitic lava) tends to be thick and viscous, so the volcano is likely to be composite rather than shield.
Which category of volcano is most likely to erupt in the near future?
An active volcano

At which type of plate boundary would a string of small volcanic islands most likely form?
Convergent Boundary meaning COLLISION! Oceanic-Oceanic which formed volcanic islands!
What types of rocks are most likely to form near an oceanic or continental rift zone?
Igneous for sure. Also metamorphic.
Where are you most likely to see a volcano erupting?
Near a volcano

Lava high in silica (granitic lava) tends to be thick and viscous, so the volcano is likely to be composite rather than shield.
When are mountains most likely to form at convergent boundary?
When two continental plates collide or a continental plate collides with an oceanic plate.
What volcano is the best super volcano?
The best super volcano is most likely the "hidden" volcano in Yellowstone park.
Suppose a volcano that is about to erupt contains mafic magma. The mafic magma has a very low silica content. what types of igneous rocks will the volcano most likely form?
basalt
Which category of volcano is most likely to erupt in the near future?
An active volcano
What is a volcano most likely made of?
basalt
