the vast majority of volcanoes on Earth can occur along mid ocean ridges. This is also the place where the Earth's crust is formed. Basalt, which is the most common rock on Earth is the material that is spewed and spread along the mid-ridges of the ocean. Some examples of underwater volcanoes, or submarine volcanoes are: Moai, Healy, and Kick' em Jenny which is still active.
