What else can I help you with?
Most earthquakes occur at the boundaries of these?
Most earthquakes occur at the boundaries of the tectonic plates. Tectonic plates are always in motion, and when two of them collide with one another it causes earthquakes.
What is the name of ca famous break in the earths crust that causes earthquakes to occur?
The famous break in the Earth's crust that causes earthquakes to occur is called a fault line. Movement along fault lines can result in earthquakes due to the build-up and release of stress between tectonic plates.
What causes earthquakes to happen?
Earth's tectonic plates move and seismic waves begin to occur.
What biome do earthquakes occur in?
The lithosphere is where earthquakes occur.
What directly causes earthquakes to happen?
Earth's tectonic plates move and seismic waves begin to occur.
What causes Earthquakes to occcur?
you know i forgot what makes them occur but i learned it like on thurday march 1
Why is there a frequency of earthquakes and volcanoes?
The reason why is because the tectonic plates never stop moving. When one plate collides with another it causes volcanoes and earthquakes to occur.
How do earthquakes occur on convergent boundaries?
Earthquakes occur on convergent boundaries when tectonic plates collide, creating immense pressure. The immense pressure causes one plate to be forced beneath the other in a process known as subduction. The process of subduction generates seismic waves, leading to earthquakes.
What plate boundary do earthquakes usually occur on?
earthquakes only happen at the edge of tectonic plates because of them moving which causes the 'quake' so there are never any BIG earthquakes in the UK because it is in the middle of a tectonic plate
Why do tsunami's hit Japan?
This is because earthquakes and tremors are common in Japan. That triggers tsunamis to occur
What plate boundary do earthquakes occur?
Earthquakes occur at all plate boundaries.
Can hurricanes and earthquakes happen underwater?
Hurricanes do not form underwater, as they require warm ocean water. Earthquakes can certainly occur underwater, known as underwater earthquakes, and can trigger tsunamis due to the displacement of water.
