When you think about it the north and south poles are frozen and it gets warmer and warmer as it reaches the equator. The reason for that is the sun. The sun rays hit the equator more then the North and South Poles.

I hope that helps.

Explanation:

A hot spot is created in the volcanic peaks and it is basically developed over the plume. The mantle plumes are the areas of the up-welling and the hot mantle areas. Magma created by the problem area ascends through the unbending plates in the lithosphere layer.

It produces the dynamic volcano at the surface of the earth. In the mantle area, the hot spot are generated in which the rocks are get melted for generating the magma. The hot spot generated the heat are basically comes from the middle of the earth.
