nevado volcano in peru There are many volcanoes in Peru. The west of Peru lies on the Andes, which run along western South America. There are many volcanoes in the Andes, some of them (more than 15) in Peru.

when earthquakes occur they're most likely on or near tectonic plates. Tectonic plates are the different segments of the earths crust. Earthquakes occur when tectonic plates move towards, away eathother or when one plate weighs more than the other and bottom one melts away and becomes magma (lava underground). Basically a shift in the earth. Because both earthquakes and volcanoes are both linked to tectonic plates, earthquakes can also set off tremors than can make some volcanoes erupt!
earthquakes are more unpredictable.
More likely than where? please make your questions unambiguous. In general the east side of the US is less likely to have earthquakes and volcanoes as compared to the west side.
Because that's were the most earthquakes occur

Humans have no more control over the climate than they have over volcanoes or earthquakes.
Because in some places there are tectonic plates that are colliding where others have little activity.

Islands were volcanoes.
Tsunamis are related to earthquakes in that earthquakes happen underwater, creating Tsunamis. Volcanoes are somewhat related to earthquakes in that some warning signs of volcanoes are tiny earthquakes, created by the movement of magma and the swelling of the volcano. Other than that, I don't think so.

Because earthquakes happen underground and volcanoes happen on land.… Not many huge population centers are built near known active volcanoes. Earthquake faults are more widespread. Most quake deaths occur when buildings collapse on the victims in highly populated areas.

More earthquakes occur underwater than above land
