Plate boundaries are the absolute edges of the tectonic plates that make up our earth's crust. These plate boundaries clash with others making what are known as fault lines, which are the cause of earthquakes.
plates are big (discs) that make up the world
at the ends of the plates other plates can collide or break apart these movment cause the earthquakes
mountains are usually formed on plate boundaries because earthquakes happen at plate boundaries. earthquakes can form mountains.
Most earthquakes occur near plate boundaries.
It has to do with stress in the earth's crust. There are more earthquakes where there is more stress. Most of this occurs at the boundaries between the tectonic plates as they slowly grind against each other.
EARTHQUAKES have changes the earth in many ways. The folding and faulting of the earth crust have left big cracks in the earths crust. The folding and faulting only happen on the tectonic boundaries. TECTONIC BOUNDARIES: The plates that make up the earths contents.
Earthquakes tend to occur most often at or near the boundaries between tectonic plates. One such boundary runs along the coast of the Western United States all the way from the bottom of California to Alaska. So places near this boundary are at the highest risk of earthquakes. As you move further east, you move further away from this tectonic plate boundary so the risk of earthquakes goes down (although they can still happen).
Most earthquakes and volcanic eruptions happen along the edges of the plates.
mountains are usually formed on plate boundaries because earthquakes happen at plate boundaries. earthquakes can form mountains.
earthquakes mostly happen around plate boundaries!
Earthquakes can happen almost anywhere, but they are most likely at the plate boundaries.
Yes, but not as often as earthquakes happen near plate boundaries
No. Earthquakes generally happen near boundaries between tectonic plates. These geologically active areas do not favor the formation of river deltas.
Most earthquakes occur near plate boundaries.
Earthquakes most commonly occur at or near tectonic plate boundaries.
Earthquakes can generally occur anywhere in the world, but most happen at plate boundaries.
yes earthquakes happen at all types of plate boundaries but most of them occur at destructive, collisional, and conservative plate boundaries
earthquakes,volcanoes,and mountains form
near the plate boundaries
