What is the connection between mountains and plate boundaries?
mountains are usually formed on plate boundaries because earthquakes happen at plate boundaries. earthquakes can form mountains.
Which of the plate boundaries can produce earthquakes?
Convergent boundaries.
Is divergent plate movement associated with the strongest earthquakes?
Although earthquakes can occur anywhere on the planet with little or no warning, the strongest earthquakes occur near the plate boundaries, as the plates converge (collide), diverge (move away from another)
Is an earthquakes a convergent or transform?
Earthquakes occur at all plate boundaries.
What plate boundaries experience the deepest earthquakes?
Subduction zones have the deepest earthquakes.
What is the connection between mountains and plate boundaries?
mountains are usually formed on plate boundaries because earthquakes happen at plate boundaries. earthquakes can form mountains.
Do earthquakes occur in plate interiors?
yes earthquakes happen at all types of plate boundaries but most of them occur at destructive, collisional, and conservative plate boundaries
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.
Which of the plate boundaries can produce earthquakes?
Convergent boundaries.
What plate boundary do earthquakes occur?
Earthquakes occur at all plate boundaries.
Do earthquakes often occur at at faults that are away from plate boundaries?
Yes, but not as often as earthquakes happen near plate boundaries
Do most severe earthquakes occur at plate boundaries or in the middle of plates?
Plate Boundaries
Which type of plate boundaries produce the most devastating earthquakes?
Convergent plate boundaries.
Is divergent plate movement associated with the strongest earthquakes?
Although earthquakes can occur anywhere on the planet with little or no warning, the strongest earthquakes occur near the plate boundaries, as the plates converge (collide), diverge (move away from another)
What plates are under Oklahoma and how many?
Oklahoma is located entirely on the North American Plate well away from any plate boundaries. The earthquakes that have been striking Oklahoma are intraplate earthquakes associated with stresses and faults in the interior of the plate.
Where do earthquakes occur the most - near plate boundaries or far away from plate boundaries?
Near plate boundaries. (Thank you teacher for explaining)
Earthquakes and occur at plate boundaries?
Volcanoes
