Question
comparing plate boundaries
the volcano in the image is called ol doinyo lengai. this volcano formed as a result of two plates separating.
which other type of plate boundary forms volcanoes?
convergent
transform
lithosphere
Divergent boundaries (plates separating) form volcanoes, as seen with Ol Doinyo Lengai. Convergent boundaries, where plates collide (one subducting under another), also produce volcanoes from melted rock rising. Transform boundaries involve sliding plates with no magma formation, and lithosphere is the rigid outer layer of the Earth, not a plate boundary type.
