Why do earthquakes and volcanic eruptions frequently occur in the same area?
because a volcanic eruption happens after an earthquake
How do most earthquakes occur?
the movement of plates
Where does movement occur in earthquakes?
Tectonic plates.
Do most earthquakes and volcanoes occur within plates or along the boundaries of plates?
Earthquakes and volcanoes occur mostly near the convergent plate boundary.
Can earthquakes occur in water?
Yes. Earthquakes are caused when the plates in the earth shift and there are still plates that shift in the water.
Earthquakes occur most often along the?
Earthquakes occur most often along the boundaries of tectonic plates.
