Answer:

The continental plate is the  location where volcanoes form when the convection in the asthenosphere creates a column of material that rises until it reaches the crust.

Explanation:

Volcanoes form at the edges of Earth’s tectonic plates. When the continental plate moves over the oceanic plate, it causes the oceanic plate to descend into the mantle where some of it melts, and the molten material moves into the mantle above the plate and causes the mantle to melt.

This liquid rock, called magma, rises to the surface because it is less dense then the surrounding rock, a volcano forms when the magma reaches the surface of the Earth at the continental plate.
