Plate Tectonics - Earth Science

The magma results in volcanic activity along a line parallel to the subduction zone known as a continental volcanic arc. Examples of continental volcanic arcs include the Cascade volcanoes such as Mt. Rainier and Mt. St. Helens and the volcanoes of the Andes mountains along the west coast of South America. USGS
