The Ring of Fire
How are the geological events related to plate tectonics?
Earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, formation of new volcanoes and new islands. Most of the Pacific Ocean islands like the Hawaiian Islands are volcanoes rising from the ocean floor. In other areas non-volcanic mountains are formed as plates collide and crumple.
A large belt of mountain ranges and volcanoes surrounds the pacific ocean. Which events are most closely associated with these mountains and volcanoes?

What zone of earthquakes and volcanoes surrounding the pacific ocean?
The Ring of Fire
What plates do earthquakes and volcanoes usually occur at?
The edge of the Pacific plate is known as the "Ring of Fire" because it has very high concentrations of earthquakes and volcanoes. However, most plate boundaries are capable of producing earthquakes and volcanoes at least occasionally.
Where in the world are earthquakes more common?
Earthquakes are most common where plates of the crusts collide or separate and especially in the Pacific ring of fire. The pacific ring of fire is a chain of volcanoes and earthquakes along the edges of the Pacific ocean.
What are volcanoes and earthquakes likely to occur?
If you mean "where" earthquakes and volcanoes are most likely to occur it is in what's called the "ring of fire" which is the coastal ring around the Pacific Ocean.
