Which of the following areas experiences the LEAST amount of tectonic activity?
The question is incomplete. No options are given to answer the question.
Where are tsunamis most likely to occur?
Tsunamis are most likely to occur along areas of high tectonic activity, which is the trigger of Tsunamis in the first place. Areas of high tectonic activity are near the edges of plates, like the Pacific-North American plate and the Indian plate.
Do earthquakes and volcanoes strike in heavily populated areas?
not necessarily, they strike on the fault lines of tectonic plates, when the plates bump into each other, they create volcanoes or earthquakes
What is the Difference between densely populated and moderately populated areas?
Densely populated areas have more units per unit of area than moderately populated areas. Example: If 100 people in a store is densely populated; 75 in a store of the same size would be moderately populated.
Why do tsunamis only occur in certain areas?
Tectonic plate activity is more common in some places than others. When this plates collide, the resulting force moves the water in the ocean. The force is so powerful it creates massive waves called Tsunamis.
Where do volcanoes commonly erupt?
In areas of tectonic activity and above mantle plumes.
Why are areas under populated?
Possibly because they are not desirable places to live in.
Where are tsunamis likely to occur?
Tsunamis are most likely to occur along areas of high tectonic activity, which is the trigger of Tsunamis in the first place. Areas of high tectonic activity are near the edges of plates, like the Pacific-North American plate and the Indian plate.
Where is seismograph used?
seismographs and seismometers are used in suspected "at risk" areas of tectonic activity (earthquakes and volcanoes)

Where are tsunamies most likely occur?
Tsunamis are most likely to occur along areas of high tectonic activity, which is the trigger of Tsunamis in the first place. Areas of high tectonic activity are near the edges of plates, like the Pacific-North American plate and the Indian plate.
What areas on earth do you predict to be the locations of tectonic activity?
Chilean coast, California, Ring Of Fire, and other plate boundaries.
How tectonic activity modify landforms?
The tectonic plates when they collide with each other create mountains as they move over or when they are moving away from each other leave areas which become lakes or seas
Do earthquakes and volcanoes strike in heavily populated areas?
not necessarily, they strike on the fault lines of tectonic plates, when the plates bump into each other, they create volcanoes or earthquakes
Why are there areas of little or no tectonic activity like in the middle of the continents?
they are stable lands. mountains are unstable becz they are formed by collision and uprising. continents are flat and stable and hence hardly receptive to tectonic activities.
What areas are thinly populated?
mountain thinly populated
