Describe 3 types of plate boundaries where volcanic eruptions can occur.

Recall that there are three types of plate boundaries: convergent, divergent, and transform. Volcanism occurs at convergent boundaries (subduction zones) and at divergent boundaries (mid-ocean ridges, continental rifts), but not commonly at transform boundaries.

within these regions are all the major types of biomes in the world. a biome is a community of animals and plants spreading over an extensive area with a relatively uniform climate. some diverse biomes represented in north america include desert, grassland, tundra, and coral reefs.
