Which tectonic plate is the Ring of Fire located around?
Intermittent, dormant and extinct
Extremely hot places deep within Earth's mantle
Pacific Plate
Made of layers of cinders. Forms around a central vent containing magma
the melted rock is called magma
At convergent boundaries when a plate undergoes subduction. The plate melts forming magma. The magma then rises.
Where they are located
Any opening in Earth's crust through which hot gases, rocks and melted material erupt
