Fault.
Fault.
They are all caused by the Earths The Earths Tectonic PLates. e.g When there is a crack or fracture in a tectonic plate the pressure slowley builds up until it if released. This can cause tsunamis if the plate is underwater or an earthquake if it is not.
A mega earthquake is seismic activity below the earths crust that causes fluctuations in the earths tectonic plates. This forces the ground to shake and the earths crust to crack.
If you are asking what is another word for it... A fissure or Fault(line).

cracks in the ground caused by earthquakesFaults. Cracks in the earths crust usually caused by earthquakes are called faults.No, their not! Faults are to do with tectonic plates, earthquake cracks are called earthquake cracks.
There are a few. Tectonic plates in Mexico have created volcanoes, mountains, and a canyon range that makes the grand canyon look like a crack in the pavement.
Cracks in the Earth's crust are called faults. They are typically a result of the action of tectonic forces and may be the cause of earthquakes.
Long crack that forms as two tectonic plates move apart

It is a rift zone or a divergent boundary. plus. no offense to that person that uploaded the previous answer.
