no because most occur in the water
it has nothing to do with population, but they happen very often in highly populated places such as Japan and San Fransico
Houses, heavily populated areas, etc
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.
No. Earthquakes generally happen near boundaries between tectonic plates. These geologically active areas do not favor the formation of river deltas.
Most earthquakes happen at the edge of tectonic plates, where the plates are colliding or sliding past each other. These areas are known as plate boundaries, and the stress and friction from the movement of the plates can lead to earthquakes.
Earthquakes happen most along tectonic plate boundaries, such as the Pacific Ring of Fire. This is because the movement of tectonic plates causes stress to build up until it is released in the form of an earthquake. Areas where two plates meet, such as subduction zones or transform faults, are especially prone to earthquakes.
Metropolitan areas of Pakistan are the most densely areas. Karachi is the most densely populated city of Pakistan.
The Atlantic Coast is the most populated area of the Americas. Other majorly populated areas are the Pacific Coast, Central America, and the Gulf Coast.
Great earthquakes: magnitude 8.0 or higher, capable of causing widespread and severe damage. Major earthquakes: magnitude 7.0-7.9, significant damage likely in populated areas. Strong earthquakes: magnitude 6.0-6.9, can cause damage to buildings in populated areas. Moderate earthquakes: magnitude 5.0-5.9, minor to moderate damage possible, felt by people.
Earthquakes are divided into catagories like 1 to 5. 1 is the least damage, 2 is a little more damage, 3 is alot of damage, 4 is porbly one of the earthquakes that make most buildings fall, 5 earthquake is the worst of them all, everything is crumbled and smashed.
populated areas.
In the heavily populated areas and areas of heavy industry
