I need help to answer all these questions

Hot Spots Part 2: Hot Spot Islands versus Convergent Plate Boundary Islands The diagram below shows several volcanic islands formed by an ocean-ocean convergent plate boundary and the age of the youngest volcanic rock (Ma millions of years ago) Use the diagram to answer the questions 0-1 Ma 0-1 Ma 0-1 Ma Trench Ocean Island 0-1 Ma 10. Which of these locations has active volcanoes? 11. How many tectonic plates are in this diagram? 12. Which arrow below best shows the relative direction the plate with the islands is moving? 13. If you saw a chain of volcanic islands in the middle of the ocean, give at least two pieces of information that would be helpful to determine whether they were formed by a hotspot or a convergent plate boundary © W.

Explanation / Answer

Answer

10). Active volcano forming on (D) island because of its movement on this.

11). There is Two tectonics plates on plate converging below another plates making trench and due to Partial melting subduction processes in overidding plates Moving volcano forming.

12.( A ) Arrow best Suited for the relative movement of plates.

13. A volcanic arc is a chain of volcanoes formed above a subducting plate, positioned in an arc shape,Generally, volcanic arcs result from the subduction of an oceanic tectonic plate under another tectonic plate, and often parallel an oceanic trench.Volcanoes can also form in the middle of a plate, where magma rises upward until it erupts on the seafloor, known as a hot spot.
