Most of the volcanoes are found along plate boundaries because-
1. Volcanoes are common along convergent and divergent plate boundaries.
2. They are also associated with meeting zones of continents and oceans.
3. Volcanoes erupt because mantle rock melts, due to extremely high temperatures, and pressure.
4. Along the subduction plate boundaries, the crust heats up as it sinks into the mantle, resulting into upwelling of lava.
