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

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Volcanoes form at convergent plate boundaries. When one tectonic plate is forced beneath another (subduction), the sub - ducting plate melts as it descends into the mantle. The molten rock (magma) then rises to the surface, forming volcanoes. Transform boundaries are associated with earthquakes rather than volcanic activity. The lithosphere is not a type of plate boundary.

Answer:

convergent
