What created the Ring of Fire?
The Ring of Fire was created by sudbuction of tectonic plates in the Pacific Ocean. While the plates are pushing against each other land is being pushed upward and is being piled on to form the volcano. While the subducting plate is going down it is pushing molting lava up through the earths crust causing lava to go through the opening of the land pushed upward. After the lava reaches the top it blasts through the top sending lava upward into the sky.
