How does earthquakes originate?
how do earquakes originate. they are caused by tectonic plates shifting beneath the surface of the earth. the movement causes part of the surface to shake which we call earthquakes.
Can volcanoes cause earthquakes?
Yes, volcano eruptions can cause earthquakes; they can also be caused by earthquakes or occur at the same time.Yes. Earthquakes are common around active volcanoes. They are usually triggered by the movement of magma beneath the earth and the fracturing of rock that results. However, volcanic earthquakes are not very large and generally do not cause much damage directly.

Are earthquakes and volcanoes both caused by techtonic plates?

How has the study of earthquakes helped us understand the inner layer of the earth?
Earthquakes are caused by a shift in two different plates beneath the earths surface. The shift is usually caused by convectional magma flows underneath the earths crust. This is because the plates are purely floating slabs of rock on the magma beneath it. The layer beneath the crust is called the mantle.

Are volcanoes caused by heat energy?
no volcanoes are caused by heat energy they are caused by the moving plate under Earth's surface
What do the locations of earthquakes and volcanoes have in common?
They are both caused by the plates under the earth being unstable, therefore moving causing vibrations and the outcome is either volcanoes or earthquakes.
