It has to be True. Hawaii is one of the two states that are away from the continental US but the only state that has islands. If you think about it most of the islands almost all of the islands have active volcanoes which could be a huge risk for the people that are living / visiting Hawaii. Hawaii may sound a nice, relaxing place to get away from crowds but there are other things to look out for in Hawaii

Answer:

<u>True</u>.

Explanation:

  • As the volcanic islands of Hawaii are still considered to be in an active zone, as the Hawaiian islands are believed to be formed on the hotspot of eruptions ie. the active plate boundaries from below the surface these tend to move westwards direction from the main island of Hawaii.
  • As we go from east to west the chain of rocks gets older and then forms a ring-shaped pattern hence called the ring of fire. Thus there is a great risk of volcanic hazard as these are fault lines being associated with high magnitude tectonic earthquakes.
  • They can have a seriously damaging impact upon other islands as well and this considered to be highly hazardous. As various vents and mounds of volcanic nature lie within the oceans of the Pacific plate.
