PACIFIC RING OF FIRE

It is represented with the dots

that is formed ring that is
why it is called pacific ring,
and fire it is to represent the
volcanoes that surround pacific
ocean.
PACIFIC TECTONIC PLATE

Pacific tectonic plate is an

oceanic plate, and it is the
largest plate lies beneath the
pacific floor. At 103 million
square kilometers.
SUBDUCTION

It is the convergent movement of

tectonic plates whereby a denser
plate is pushed beneath a lighter
one.
VOLCANO

A mountain or hill, typically

conical, having a crater or vent
through which lava, rock
fragments, hot vapor, and gas
are being or have been erupted
from the earth's crust.
VOLCANOES ARE FORMED

It is formed during a subduction,

when subduction occurs it is
because of the convection current.
MOUNTAIN RANGES

 A mountain range (also mountain barrier, belt,

or system) is a geographic area containing
numerous geologically related mountains.
