How are volcanoes and earthquakes linked to plate tectonics?
Yes. 1st of all the volcanoes are formed by the plates moving together and one going on the top.
What is the relationship between the locations of volcanoes and earthquakes with regard to faults?
Earthquakes and volcanoes are most common near the faults at plate boundaries.
What is the relationship between faults and volcanoes?
Volcanoes are usually found near convergent an divergent plate boundaries, which are themselves major faults and usually create minor faults. Minor faults can also provide a pathway for magma to reach the surface.
Are the locations of volcanoes related to earthquake faults?
yes
What happens when divergent boundaries occur in the middle of an ocean?
A ridge with transverse faults is formed, where new oceanic crust (seafloor) is formed.

What provides the most evidence for the theory of plate tectonics?
Faults and volcanoes are often found at tectonic plates boundaries
What is the relationship between the locations of volcanoes and earthquakes with regard to faults?
Earthquakes and volcanoes are most common near the faults at plate boundaries.
Where are located the volcanoes and earthquakes?
it is at faults or cracks

Where is new lithosphere formed?
New lithosphere is commonly formed at mid-ocean ridges, hot spots, and where there are active volcanoes.
Are the locations of volcanoes related to earthquake faults?
yes
How would faults help the earth?
Earth faults, which create earthquakes and also promote volcanoes, are the source of new crustal layers, and the subduction of older crust. As such, they bring new minerals to the surface, which can benefit the living organisms there.

What could be the reason for the presence or absence of metallic deposits in your area?
You can download the detailed map of trenches,faults and Volcanoes in the Philippines.
What kind of land is formed by the plate boundary?
The landforms that are formed at a transform boundary forms features such as fault lines and oceanic fracture zones. Fault lines are also known as strike slip faults. They produce powerful earthquakes.
