i think so because if a earthquake is close to a volcano the the shaking from a earthquake will put a crack in the volcano lava chamber and then the volcano erupt.

Do earthquakes explode like volcanoes?

No, earthquakes and volcanoes are different geological events. Earthquakes are caused by the movement of tectonic plates beneath the Earth's surface, while volcanoes erupt due to magma or gas buildup beneath the Earth's crust. While both can cause destruction, earthquakes do not explode like volcanoes.


How can volcanoes errupt under water?

Volcanoes can erupt underwater when magma rises to the surface through a weak spot in the Earth's crust on the ocean floor, known as a mid-ocean ridge or a hotspot. When the magma reaches the cold ocean water, it can cause the water to heat up rapidly, leading to explosive eruptions and the formation of underwater volcanoes.


Does volcanoes cause most of the earthquakes?

No, but they are very related. Tectonic plates shift which could cause earthquakes because of the strong vibrations and could also cause the pushing up of magma, causing the volcano to erupt.
