Do the earthquakes appear to occur all over earths surface or only in isolated regions?
Earthquakes occur all over earths surface because isolated regions are ice and for example California is not ice it is heat
Are volcanoes and earthquakes plate tectonics?
Very much so. There are underwater volcanos where the plates are being formed. There are earthquakes where the plates push into one another. The movement of tectonic plates create conditions in which volcanoes and earthquakes occur. They don't in themselves cause volcanoes and earthquakes. The movements of tectonic plates is caused by currents of heat from the Earth's interior. That's the real culprit. Without that heat, the tectonic processes would stop and so would the volcanoes and nearly all of the earthquakes. Although earthquakes can occur anywhere , they are more frequent in earthquake zones. These zones such as Japan & California lie near the moving margin's of the tectonic plates , called fault lines . The movements of tectonic plated is caused by currents of heat from the Earths interior. By Kimberly Roberts Go Mill Park Secondary College 6 Bamboo court Mill Park Vic
What geologic events occur at transform boundries?
Earthquakes
What is the 'why' and not the 'how' for earthquakes happening?
Because heat rises from the earth's mantle and creates such pressure that the parts of the crust called tectonic or lithospheric plates move is the reason why earthquakeshappen.
All about earthquakes?
All about earthquakes is everything you need to know about earthquakes, googl it you dodo
Does heat cause earthquakes?
To a degree, heat inside the earth causes earthquakes. The rock of Earth's mantle is softened by the extreme heat inside Earth, allowing sections of Earth's crust to move around. Differences in temperature create convection currents which cause that movement.
Do volacnoes erupt as often as earthquakes happen?
no because earthquakes are from mountains split into two sides and the volcano erupts when the crust cant hold the heat from the core
What happens to people that get hit by an earthquakes?
They die because the heat burns their skin and then they die.
How heat energy from earth's mantle is eventually transformed into waves caused by earthquakes?
to be cool by Alhassan
Why do earthquakes start at all?
That heat from the earth's mantle causes the tectonic or lithospheric plates of the earth's crust to move away or toward each other is the reason why earthquakes start.
Do earthquakes occur when heat travels through the mantle true or false?
False - that's a volcanic eruption.
Does fire often occur after earthquakes and why?
yes because the friction of the tectonic plates produces heat leading to fires
Do the earthquakes appear to occur all over earths surface or only in isolated regions?
Earthquakes occur all over earths surface because isolated regions are ice and for example California is not ice it is heat
Are there any benefits of earthquakes?
ThEy heat the earth. Also they release tension form the plates reducing the chance of a huge earthquake
Are earthquakes prone to heat or cold?
No. The temp of the earth has nothing to do with an earthquake. An earthquake is caused by the plates moving along fault lines.
Are volcanoes and earthquakes plate tectonics?
Very much so. There are underwater volcanos where the plates are being formed. There are earthquakes where the plates push into one another.

Why the atmosphere is heated from below?
Because of the pressure in the center of the earth. Which also cause earthquakes. Edit: No. Most of the heat comes from the sun and is reflected back out.
