Find the hot spot on the map. This represents one of the volcanoes of Hawaii, which gets its fuel because the island sits over a hot spot. Hot spots occurs at abnormally hot centers known as mantle plumes. Scientific models depict these plumes of molten rock almost like a lava lamp, with a rising bulbous head fed by a long, narrow tail that originates in the mantle. This type of volcanism, hot spot volcanism, is unique. Why?(1 point)Responses The resulting volcanoes always produce islands. The resulting volcanoes always produce islands. It does not occur at plate boundaries where most all other volcanism occurs. It does not occur at plate boundaries where most all other volcanism occurs. It occurs where two tectonic plates converge and is usually the site of mountain building. It occurs where two tectonic plates converge and is usually the site of mountain building. The hot spot volcanoes rarely result in mountain building; they are a destructive process.

Answer 1

The correct response is: It does not occur at plate boundaries where most all other volcanism occurs.

Hot spot volcanism is unique because it arises from mantle plumes and can occur independently of tectonic plate boundaries, unlike most other types of volcanism which occur at convergent or divergent plate boundaries.
