Want this question answered?
earth quakes happen all the time in chile but here latley they havent been happing at all!! :)
The Ring of Fire is also known as the Pacific Ring of Fire. The yellow line is the location of the Ring of Fire. The Ring of Fire is bascically where the Earth's tectonic plates have spread apart and cracked, allowing warm lava to rise and causing many earthquakes and volcanoes. Also, the plates here often shift and that is why there are often tsunamis. Tsunamis are caused underwater by onshore earthquakes that are very powerful.
About 90% of the world's earthquakes and 81% of the world's largest earthquakes occur along the circum-Pacific seismic belt, also known as the Ring ofFire.
You know this site is just people telling you, you won't find this here. So go ask your teacherr(:
Volcanoes are most often found along plate boundaries. Here, conditions cause rocks in the upper mantle to melt, either by introducing volatiles or by reducing pressure.

That depends on the location of "here"

Here is one answer volcanoes can happen in Texas's, Hawaii.
Two continental plates meet here plus a great number of faults
Plate tectonics causes most volcanoes and earthquakes. When plates converge, diverge, or slip along another plate, volcanoes and earthquakes occur. There are other forms of volcanoes such as the Hawaiian Islands where volcanoes are formed over a hot spot in the mantel, and we have small earthquakes here in Wisconsin called rebound earthquakes where the land is actually still rising from the last ice age when it was depressed by the weight of the glaciers. There are other geophysical events that can create earthquakes too such as fracking.

Yes there are some mud volcanoes here in Baluchistan Pakistan
Yes volcanoes generally erupt and form on the Borders between tectonic plates under the earths surface, as the route between the earths core and the surface is weaker on these lines. Same with earthquakes, this is when the tectonic plates move or shift against one another
