Some similarities between convergent and divergent boundaries are that both create faults that are capable of producing earthquakes; both are tectonic plates; and both are part of the lithosphere.
At constructive plate margins (where two plate slide away from each other) or a destructive plate boundary (where two plates slide together), volcanoes do not occur at a conservative plate margin. Hope this helps
Many volcanos occur along tectonic boundaries, whether they are convergent (pushing together) or divergent (pulling apart). These boundaries typically occur between continental and oceanic plates or between two oceanic plates. Some volcanos however are created by hot spots where molten magma from the mantle of the Earth pushes through the crust, these hot spots can form islands such as the Hawaiian Islands.
No, Hot Spots can be in the center of plates. An example of a Hot Spot is the Hawaiian Islands.

The plates are either moving past each other (transform boundary), toward each other (convergent boundary) or away from each other (divergent boundary). In some cases when there is a convergent boundary, one plate will be subducted under the other plate. During this process and the process occurring at a transform boundary, the plates don't slide easily past each other because they are jagged. The plates can get locked. Stress continues to build. Eventually, the stress becomes so great that the plates "pop" free. When that happens, there is a tremendous amount of energy released in the form of an earthquake.
No, a stratovolcano is not a divergent volcano. Stratovolcanoes are typically found at convergent plate boundaries where one tectonic plate is being subducted beneath another, leading to the formation of explosive volcanoes. Divergent volcanoes, on the other hand, are associated with divergent plate boundaries where plates move away from each other, creating rift zones and shield volcanoes.
Continental and Oceanic plates.
No, some are convergent (against each other), some are divergent (away from each other), and most boundaries are transform (horizontal grinding) at some point.
Some are. Most volcanoes on land are produced by convergent boundaries while others form over hot spots.
Fault lines.
Most volcanoes are located along tectonic plate boundaries, particularly at convergent and divergent boundaries. At convergent boundaries, one plate subducts beneath another, leading to magma formation and volcanic activity. At divergent boundaries, plates pull apart, allowing magma to rise and create new crust, often resulting in volcanic eruptions. Additionally, some volcanoes, known as hotspot volcanoes, can form away from plate boundaries due to mantle plumes.
Shallow earthquakes occur within the top 70 kilometers of the Earth's crust, known as the seismogenic zone. These earthquakes are typically associated with transform plate boundaries, divergent plate boundaries, and some convergent plate boundaries, where tectonic plates interact and generate seismic activity.
Most volcanoes form at either convergent or divergent plate boundaries. Volcanoes at convergent plate boundaries form when one plate slides under another, taking seawater with it. This causes the rock in the mantle to melt as the melting point drops. This new magma can rise to form volcanoes.At divergent plate boundaries the crust is thing, which lowers pressure on the mantle, causing some material to melt.
A composite volcano is typically found at convergent plate boundaries, where one tectonic plate is pushed beneath another in a process known as subduction. The melting of the subducted plate creates magma that rises to the surface and forms the volcano.
The three types of plate movements (convergent, divergent, transform) all involve interaction between tectonic plates. Convergent boundaries involve plates colliding, divergent boundaries involve plates moving apart, and transform boundaries involve plates sliding past each other. These movements can result in the formation of new landforms, earthquakes, and volcanic activity.
Major interactions between tectonic plates occur along plate boundaries, including convergent boundaries where plates collide, divergent boundaries where plates move apart, and transform boundaries where plates slide past each other. These interactions result in various geological features like mountain ranges, oceanic trenches, and volcanic activity. Some well-known examples of plate interactions include the Himalayas forming at the convergent boundary between the Indian and Eurasian plates, and the Mid-Atlantic Ridge at a divergent boundary in the Atlantic Ocean.
At convergent boundaries some mantle material can melt and rise through the crust, forming volcanoes.
