Question

how do volcanoes that form on a plate moves over hot spot in the mantle differ from volcanoes that form along convergent plate boundaries

Answer 1

A hot spot is here magma appears near to the surface. Imagine this, the crust is a plate, and the hotspot is a pencil, as the plate moves, you punch holes through the plate. This is the hotspot creating volcanoes as the crust moves. This is how hotspot volcanoes are created. The volcanoes that are created on boundaries are created from differences in the crust as it is created.
