All about earthquakes?

Earthquakes are caused by the sudden release of energy in the Earth's crust, leading to seismic waves that shake the ground. The point within the Earth where the earthquake starts is called the hypocenter, while the point directly above it on the Earth's surface is called the epicenter. Earthquakes can cause widespread destruction and tsunamis, particularly in regions near tectonic plate boundaries.
