The majority of volcanoes are formed along tectonic plate boundaries, particularly at divergent and convergent boundaries. At divergent boundaries, tectonic plates pull apart, allowing magma to rise and create new crust. At convergent boundaries, one plate subducts beneath another, leading to melting and the formation of magma, which can result in explosive volcanic activity. These geological processes are driven by the movement of the Earth's tectonic plates and the heat from the mantle.
