this is a map that shows hot spots around the world. which phrase describes the formation of the hawaiian islands? formed due to subduction formed in the middle of a plate formed at a divergent boundary formed at a convergent boundary
Answer
Brief Explanations:
The Hawaiian Islands are formed by volcanic activity over a hot - spot in the middle of the Pacific Plate. Subduction occurs at convergent boundaries where one plate moves under another. Divergent boundaries are where plates move apart. Convergent boundaries are where plates come together. The Hawaiian Islands are not formed at these types of boundaries but in the middle of a plate due to a stationary hot - spot as the plate moves over it.
Answer:
formed in the middle of a plate
