What are earths 10 most active Volcanoes?
Asia,Africa,Antartica,South America and Europe
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.
Where is most of the earths carbon located and what form?
A majority of the earths carbon is located in the ocean.
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.
Do most volcanoes form near colliding plate boundaries?
Most volcanoes do form near colliding plate boundaries where subduction occurs, such as the Ring of Fire in the Pacific Ocean. However, volcanoes can also form in other geologic settings, such as hotspots and rift zones.
Where are most of the earths volcanoes hidden?
The Oceans
Why do so many of earths volcanoes form along plate boundaries?
Lava easily spews out of plate faults making volcanoes.
What percent of the earths volcanoes lie along the ring fire?
Most.
Do most volcanoes occur at earths poles?
NO. not at all. most are in the pacific, surrounding the Ring Of Fire
What forms valcanoes?
most volcanoes are formed from a hot spot in the earths crust.
Active volcanoes are most likely to form at .?
Volcanoes are most likely to form at the edges of the tectonic plates.
Most of the earths volcanoes are located in a wide uneven loop around the pacific ocean what is the belt of volcanoes called?
The Ring of Fire
Where do vocanoes form and why?
Volcanoes usually form between tectonic plates in the earth's crust. Hot molten rock beneath the surface gets pushed up as these plates move, and sometimes large rock formations will form. Volcanoes can form in places that arent on the edge of tectonic plates, however, but the Ring of Fire is where most of the earths volcanoes are concentrated, around the Pacific, North American, and South American plates.
What are earths 10 most active Volcanoes?
Asia,Africa,Antartica,South America and Europe
Where do Most of the earths volcanoes occur where?
In the "Ring of Fire" on the Pacific Rim (a.k.a. Pacific Ocean)
Do volcanoes form when one plate is pushed under another plate and melting rock erupts on earths surface?
yes
How are volcanoes essential to earths survival?
However, volcanoes are essential to earths survival they act like a safety valve for the planet (it releases pressure)
