An earthquake takes place when the plates rub against each other, the movement forces waves of energy to come to the earth surface. This causes tremors and shakes, and then we can say that an earthquake has taken place.

Why does earthquakes happen before volcanose?

Because earthquakes are caused by concentrated belts. The concentrated belts are on the lines of where the plate tectonics boundaries seperated. (When earth's land started to split apart.) These are in places where 2 plates are pushing forward, pulling back, or sliding past each other. Strain builds up along the plate's boundaries. When the strain becomes too great, earthquakes accure. These areas are also where heat flow are. Motlen rock moves upward to Earths surface, causing volcanic activity.
