Which statements accurately describe hot spots? Check all that apply.

1- Hot spots can cause volcanoes

2- Hot spots can cause geothermal activity like geysers and mud pots

3- The Hawaiian Islands formed over a hotspot

4- Hot spots only occur at plate boundaries

5- Yellowstone National Park is a geothermal hotspot

Every one except 4

Explanation:

Volcanoes are very common in hotspots, as well as the formation of geysers and mud pots. The Hawaiian Islands are located right in the middle of a plate and right over a hotspot, so that means that hotspots don't only from on the plate boundaries. Yellowstone National Park is a geothermal hotspot where geysers form. I hope this helps you!

the correct answer is 4) heat and pressure

metamorphic rocks arise from transformation of existing rocks types, in a process called metamorphism. during metamorphism the original rock(prolith) change into metamorphic rock by heating (150-200c) and pressure of more than 1000 bar. the original rock can be sedimentary, igneous, or existing metamorphic rock.
