Catastrophism was the theory that the Earth had largely been shaped by sudden, short-lived, violent events, possibly worldwide in scope. This was in contrast to uniformitarianism (sometimes described as gradualism), in which slow incremental changes, such as erosion, created all the Earth's geological features.
An earthquake would support the principle of catastrophism. The principle of catastrophism suggests that significant geological events, such as earthquakes, are caused by sudden, violent forces. This is in contrast to uniformitarianism, which argues that geological processes occur gradually over long periods of time.

First, let's define uniformitarianism. It is the postulation that the geologic principles that operated in the past are the same as those that are operating today. The opposite view is supposed to be catastrophism, the postulation that Earth's geologic features are a result of sudden and catastrophic processes that are not currently in action today. Catastrophic events, however, are perfectly compatible with uniformitarianism, as events such as flooding can occur due to normal processes such as headward erosion toward large bodies of water, and climatic caused ice melting during periods of glaciations. Large meteor impacts have been recorded in the past, and so have eruptions of supervolcanoes. These catastrophic events are going to occur again and are considered a part of, just not a highly predictable part of, the geologic cycle.
Yes they did send medical supplies.
The third principle of Dalton atomic theory is no supported.
Earthquakes are most common above boundaries between the tectonic plates. If a map is taken and then earthquake patterns marked on it, the clear shapes of the tectonic plates can be seen, out lined by the earthquake markers. (the clear shapes of the tectonic plates...that's actually kind of a cool rhyme...)

This help the principal because erosion is a movement that breaks rock into pieces so that what make the volcanoes more rounder

sam was here i love the earth i support it very well in my heart sam is an idiot for not answering the question
after life

it may colapse the support beams that the building have already had weakend by the actuall earthquake, causing them to fall down!
well cant say how uniformitarianism would support it but as far as index fossils go think about the fact that a for a single species to survive on multiple continents at same time it would need the same environment and apparently its not the case now but Pangaea was a single continent @ one place with single environment. so if any index fossils spread across multiple continents point towards them being of same environment and the most logical explanation is them being at the similar lat-long which sort of points us towards the idea that is Pangaea!
