Is there is a recognizable pattern to where earthquakes seem to occur?
Earthquakes occur along fault lines and the edges of tectonic plates. These are areas where the earth's plates move against each other. When they slide past each other, earthquakes occur.
An earthquake is a shaking caused by the sudden movement of the earth's crust.?
Earthquakes occur both along plate edges and along faults. Most earthquakes will occur near the edge of the oceanic and continental plates.
Where do earthquakes and volcanoes mostly frequently occur?
Underground Earthquakes occur along fault lines. Volcanoes are all over the world but a good place to find one is in the Ring of Fire.
Where does a earthquake happen?
Earthquakes occur all the time all over the world, both along plate edges and along faults.
What biome do earthquakes occur in?
The lithosphere is where earthquakes occur.
Where do the worlds earthquakes occur around?
Most earthquakes occur where the edges of Earth's plates are.
Do earthquakes occur in the edges of the continents?
yes it comes on the coast
Why do earthquakes and volcanoes occur near the edges of the continents?
maybe
What common natural disasters can occur along the edges of the tectonic plates?
Earthquakes!

Most earthquakes happen-?
Most earthquakes occur near plate boundaries.
Earthquakes frequently occur along the edges of?
Earthquakes occur frequently along the edges of fault lines. This is caused when two plates collide into or slide past each other. This will send shockwaves around the epicenter, resulting in an earthquake.
Why do earthquakes occur along faults?
because that's where the edges of the plates are and that's where it shifts
An earthquake is a shaking caused by the sudden movement of the earth's crust.?
Earthquakes occur both along plate edges and along faults. Most earthquakes will occur near the edge of the oceanic and continental plates.
Where do earthquakes and volcanes occur?
Earthquakes occur near faults and near the edges of plates in the earth's crust. Volcanic eruptions occur wherever a volcano is. Volcanic eruptions can occur when magma from below Earth's surface seeps through a weak spot in the crust. Volcanoes occur along plate boundaries, along the edges of plates, so this is where volcanoes occur also.
Can Scientists can identify where earthquakes will most likely occur?
They will happen around the edges of tectonic plates.
Why do earthquakes usually occur plate boundaries?
Earthquakes are usually happen along the edges of the tectonic plates and are caused by the plates hitting together.
