The correct answer is - a convergent boundary, where at least one of the plates is oceanic.

Volcanoes can be formed in multiple types of interactions between the tectonic plates, but most often, they form where there's a convergent boundary between a continental and oceanic tectonic plate. This can easily be seen by the famous ''Ring of Fire'', which is on and around the borders of the Pacific Ocean, and that is due to the heavier Pacific plate subducting beneath the lighter continental plates around it, thus creating a very long chain of volcanoes.

Tectonic plates definition
Setler79 [48]
Tectonic plates are parts (pieces) of the outermost layer of Earth: the Crust. (the outermost part of the mantle is also often included in the plates). This means that the land in the middle of the plates is relatively stable while the borders of the plates can be in movement - after all this is where two pieces meet. Plate borders are where the vocanoes and Earthquakes often take place.
