Earthquakes occur most often along the?
Earthquakes occur most often along the boundaries of tectonic plates.
Why folding and faulting is one of the main causes behind earthquakes?
earthquakes often occur near fold mountains because fold mountains are formed on the earth's fault lines ( invisble lines in the earth's crust) and earthquakes happen when two fault lines crash together.
What do earthquakes often occur along?
The edge of the oceanic and continental plates.
Where do earthquakes occur in the United States for kids?
Earthquakes occur on the west side of the United states of America. The state of California is often hit by earthquakes. This is because there is a fault line cause by the tectonic plates on the western coast of America.
Is it true that earthquakes most often occur at faults that are away from plate boundaries?
yes
Is it true earthquakes and volcanoes often occur where two of the earth's plates meet?
that's what ive heard
Where in the world do earthquakes occur often?
In California, there are frequent earthquakes

Do earthquakes often occur at at faults that are away from plate boundaries?
Yes, but not as often as earthquakes happen near plate boundaries
Where do earthquakes occur most often?
Earthquakes commonly occur near tectonic plates when they rub together. A common place for earthquakes in the Unites States is California.
When do earthquakes occur the most?
Japan and Indonesia have it quite often.
Do tectonic plates meet where earthquakes often occur?
Yes.
Do earthquakes most often occur at faults that are away from plate boundary?
Earthquakes infrequently occur away from plate boundaries. Most earthquakes occur at plate boundaries because of the stress caused by the interacting plates.
What do earthquakes often occur along?
The edge of the oceanic and continental plates.
Where do earthquakes occur most often and why?
near the water because tsunamis make earthquakes formNear fault lines. This is where two tectonic plates (sections of the earth's crust) are next to each other. When the plates move, it is called an earthquake.
Do any landforms occur near earthquakes?
Yes. Not very often, though.
