Why are there no active volcanoes at transform boundaries?
There are. Most volcanoes occur at these boundaries.
There is no subduction. The plates grind past one another.
There is not enough magma in the mantle to feed volcanoes in these locations.
The gravitational pull of the moon is too great and forces the magma to remain submerged.
The downward force of the colliding continents keeps the magma from rising to the surface.
