What is an earthquake and a seismic activity?
A seismic activity is an earthquake... An earthquake is when the tectonic plates (under ground) clash together, which causes an earthquake. Earthquakes can be very small or huge depending on where the country is. They can kill thousands of people, knock down buildings and create huge cracks in the ground.

What does a fault have to do with an earthquake?
A fault is a fracture in Earth's crust where rocks have moved in relation to each other. When the accumulated stress along a fault exceeds the strength of the rocks, it causes them to break abruptly, resulting in an earthquake. Stress and energy release along faults are fundamental to earthquake generation.
