Why there are volcanoes mountain ranges and earthquake in the crust?
Volcanoes and earthquakes are both the result of what is known as plate tectonics; the Earth's crust is composed of a number of large pieces known as plates, which float on the underlying magma of the mantle, and which slowly drift, and collide with each other. Volcanoes are also related to currents in the magma which can break through the crust even aside from the phenomenon of continental drift.

Yes. The majority of volcanoes are found near plate boundaries.
How are faults volcanoes mountain ranges and basins of California related?

What how mountain ranges and climate can each limit a species distribution?
Mountain ranges may limit a species distribution by acting as a natural barrier. For example, if a mammalian has a family that needs to have nourishment and the food is on the other side of the mountain, the family may starve to death.
