Answer:
Although most volcanoes are found at convergent or divergent plate boundaries, intraplate volcanoes are found in the middle of a tectonic plate. The Hawaiian Islands are the exposed peaks of a great chain of volcanoes that lie on the Pacific plate.
Explanation:
Along plate boundaries, either plates sink below another plate (subduction), heating and creating magma, or plates pull apart, allowing magma to rise to the surface. ... Thus, most of the volcanoes are found on the plate boundaries.
