Earthquakes happen when these sections of Earth's crust move?
earthquakes happen when these sections of earths crust move
When earthquake happen when these sections of earth crust move?

How does stress in the crust change earths crust?
it means earthquakes will happen more often
Earthquakes happen when what section of the earths crust move?
The tectonic plates.
What are earthquakes. How do they occur?
earthquakes happen when sections of the earths crust shift.These shifting parts called plates,are actually pieces of the crust floating on the hot molten interior of the earth. The majority of earthquakes happen along the edges of those plates,and along weak areas of the crust called fault zones
What occurs when earths crust shift?
Earthquakes.
Why are map showing locations of past earthquakes useful to scientists?
Earthquakes happen when the Earth's crust shifts violently. So if we know that an earthquake has happened in California, then scientist know that the crust under California is unstable, therefore making earthquakes more likely to happen there. Earthquakes can happen anywhere, but the tend to happen repeatedly in certain spots
What are the different types of earthquakes?
I think there are three types of earthquakes one is the earths crust
What are the sky conditions if an earthquake is going to happen?
The weather and sky have nothing to do with it. Earthquakes happen when to pieces of earths crust suddenly move against or under another.
Where do most earthquakes take place why?
I would say Japan because it is separated into four pieces of the earths crust. in Tokyo Very small earthquakes happen every day
Where are most earthquakes and volcanoes found on?
A fault line in the earths crust
How earthquakes have changed the surface and atmosphere of the earth over millions of years?
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.
