Question

A.)Describe the creation of the Hawaiian islands

Answer 1

Areas where the plates come together, sometimes volcanoes will form. Volcanoes can also form in the middle of a plate, where magma rises upward until it erupts on the seafloor, at what is called a “hot spot.” The Hawaiian Islands were formed by such a hot spot occurring in the mid
dle of the Pacific Plate.

Kauaʻi's origins are volcanic, the islandhaving been formed by the passage of the Pacific Plate over the Hawaii hotspot. At approximately five million years old, it is the oldest of the mainislands.
