Best Answer

Any volcano that has erupted within the Holocene epoch (i.e. within the past 12,000 years) is considered to be active.

Some examples of active volcanoes are Mount Etna in Sicily, Kilauea in Hawaii, Mount St. Helens in the US, Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines, Krakatoa in Indonesia and Mount Vesuvius in Italy.

No. As the plate moves over the hot spot creating the volcanism, the island volcanoes become extinct.

No. Most of the Hawaiian volcanoes are extinct. Only those at the eastern end of the chain are active.
