The Hawaiian Islands were formed where mantle erupts through crust.

Explanation:

All the Hawaiian Islands were formed by the action of volcanoes that arose from the bottom of the sea, from a source of magma (hot spot).

Hawaii's hot spot theory holds that the tectonic plate under the Pacific moves, while the hot spot stands still, creating new volcanoes. For this reason, the volcanoes of the southern half of the island of Hawaii remain active today.

The oldest islands have inactive volcanoes, but in the newest ones volcanoes still active. The island of Hawaii has five volcanoes, and one of them is one of the most active in the world, the Kīlauea.
