a) most non-explosive volcanoes are found at hot spots and located in plate interiors. (wrong)
b) an oceanic-oceanic convergent plate boundary will not produce explosive eruptions.
c) explosive volcanoes can be found at divergent plate boundaries.
d) most explosive volcanoes are found at oceanic-continental convergent plate boundaries.
e) continental-continental collisions result in both non-explosive and explosive volcanism.

During metamorphic processes, increased pressure and temperature can affect the of minerals in rock. rocks subjected to very high pressure are typically than others because mineral grains are squeezed together, and the atoms are more closely packed. during metamorphic processes, water facilitates the transfer of ions between and within minerals, which can the rate at which metamorphic reactions take place. the growth of new minerals within a rock during metamorphism has been estimated to be about per million years. metamorphism is commonly associated with convergent plate boundaries, where two plates move toward each other. during contact metamorphism, a large intrusion will contain thermal energy and will cool much more slowly than a small one. metamorphosed sandstone is known as the metamorphic rock made from metamorphosed shale, was once used to make blackboards for classrooms
