Answer:

Convergent or Divergent

Step-by-step explanation:

Volcanoes can occur along both convergent and divergent plate boundaries. Along convergent ones, they occur as the two plates collide together and one subducts under the other. They can also happen along divergent plate boundaries such as rift zones, from which magma rises up from the mantle and creates a volcano.
