WHAT??? WHY ARE THERE NO VOLCANOES IN THE HIMALAYAS.........

You know sometimes people like me wonder why there are so many earthquakes but really no volcanoes in the Himalayas. The reason why is because that there is not hot, rising magma in order to form a volcanoes. The volcanoes need subduction which means collision of the earth's crustal plates result in one of the plates being drawn down or overridden by another, close along the juncture of to plates. In order to have a volcano to happen you need for the earths oceanic crust and the continental. Then the earths crust will subduct (go under) the continental  crust. Then finally the oceanic crust will melt and the melted rock rises up through the crust to make the great explosion of the volcano. So the reason why there is no volcanoes in the Himalayas is because there is no hot magma or oceanic crust and continental crust to make the volcano. So the major thing that happens in the Himalayas is the awesome earthquakes. There are so many earthquakes in the Himalayas because the plates converging or coming together to make an earthquake. The number of  earthquakes happen a year is about 10,000 in California.Last but not least the best fact about the Himalayas is that the longest earthquake is 9.5 in Chile in 1960.That is what i  learned about the Himalayas.
