3. Hotspots can form island chains because the plate moves on Earth’s surface, but the hotspot beneath the surface remains fixed. Scientists can look at the position of the island chains and determine the direction the plate moves. The Hawaiian Islands sit on the Pacific plate. In what direction do you think it is moving? Select all that apply.
