What cause earthqukes and volcanic eruptions?
Plate tectonics causes most volcanoes and earthquakes. When plates converge, diverge, or slip along another plate, volcanoes and earthquakes occur. There are other forms of volcanoes such as the Hawaiian Islands where volcanoes are formed over a hot spot in the mantel, and we have small earthquakes here in Wisconsin called rebound earthquakes where the land is actually still rising from the last ice age when it was depressed by the weight of the glaciers. There are other geophysical events that can create earthquakes too such as fracking.
What are the special features of earthquakes and volcanoes?
the earthquakes special feature is that the land is splitting and a huge crack comes and splits the land. the volcanoes special feature is that the lava comes from the core and comes out of the hole of the volcano.
Are there more earthquakes under the sea than on land?

Why both earthquakes and volcanoes occur in some fold mountain areas?
Mountains and earthquakes occur in the same fold mountain areas because of the tectonic plates coming together, moving apart, and sliding one atop another. This causes areas to rise and form mountains.
How are earthquake and volcanoes different?
