maybe it was gone. haha
no, earthquakes mainly happen when two plates crash each other or one plates goes under the other.
the plates moved
on the edge of plates and on the equator
a fault
global tectonics in which the lithosphere divided into a number of crustal plates
Most earthquakes happen at the edge of tectonic plates, where the plates are colliding or sliding past each other. These areas are known as plate boundaries, and the stress and friction from the movement of the plates can lead to earthquakes.
Volcanoes, caused by slipping plates, and earthquakes, caused by rubbing plates.
When tectonic plates move, anything could happen.
New oceanic plates/crust are created in the space of separation.
If two plates crashed into each other two possible things can happen: 1 The plates bump into each other and can cause an earthquake. 2 The plates crash, then they go upwards to form a mountain or a volcano. ~Doraexplorer
YOU WIN!!!!! YOU WIN!!!!!
Because of tectonic plates
