Explanation:
If all goes well, my answer should explain itself.
Answer:
Option (1)
Explanation:
Hotspots are the regions where the magma rises towards the surface due to the presence of large mantle plumes. The force exerted by the magma here is very high. When the lithospheric plates move over these regions, the magma comes out to the surface forming volcanoes. And as the plates move away from the region of hotspot they eventually cool. These hots spots are fixed at a place. There are numerous hotspots on earth. for example, the Hawaiin island chain, below which there are regions of hotspots.
Thus, the hotspot regions are not associated with the plate boundaries.
Hence, the correct answer is option (1).
Answer:
on land but close to oceans
Explanation:
Earthquakes occur as a result of collisions along oceanic-continental convergent boundaries.
Majority of the earthquakes occur alongside the Ring of Fire of the Pacific Ocean. The Ring of Fire is found in the basin which is a land area found close to the coastlines of the ocean. This validates its occurrence on land but close to the oceans.
