The edge of the Pacific plate is known as the "Ring of Fire" because it has very high concentrations of earthquakes and volcanoes. However, most plate boundaries are capable of producing earthquakes and volcanoes at least occasionally.
Earthquakes and volcanoes occur mostly near the convergent plate boundary.
because there is no tectonic plate under Minnesota, no plates are ever moving over MN, thus making it hard to get an earthquakes and volcanoes usually occur @ the edge of plates
earthquakes occur because plates move and they over lap causing an earthquake.
Earthquakes occur along the edge of the oceanic and contiential plates.
Earthquakes occur most often along the boundaries of tectonic plates.
Anywhere where the earths plates meet. Earthquakes occur only were there is an epicenter. Were ever the epicenter is the earthquake will happen.
Scientists observed that volcanoes and earthquakes occur at the edge of tectonic plates.
Earthquakes occur when two plates that were pushing against each other slip apart and all the pressure gets released causing the earthquake. And idk about volcanoes
The majority of earth's volcanoes and earthquakes occur near the boundaries of tectonic plates. Therefore, an area that has volcanoes is likely to be prone to earthquake as well.
yes, they at the edge of the tectonic plates.
The reason why is because the tectonic plates never stop moving. When one plate collides with another it causes volcanoes and earthquakes to occur.
There is a region called the Pacific Ring of Fire, which bounds the entire Pacific Ocean with active convergent tectonic plates that has most of the world's earthquakes and volcanoes.It has 452 volcanoes and it is home to 75% of the world's dormant and active volcanoes.
