Plate Tectonics. Plate tectonics is the movement of the Earth's crust through convection currents that occur in the mantle. Divergent plate boundaries occur where hot magma rises to the surface, pushing the plates apart. The mid-ocean ridges form at divergent plate boundaries.
Volcanoes occur where they do because of the position of the crust over a plate boundary or a 'hot spot' in the Earth's mantle.olcanoes usually occur where there are collision of the tectonic plates. There are 52 tectonic plates which either pull (gap and crack) or push (volcano). Volcanoes are actually tectonic plates which have magmas beneath their outer surface.
