What boundary is normally devoid of volcanism?

Transform plate boundaries are normally devoid of volcanism. These boundaries are where two tectonic plates slide horizontally past each other, leading to earthquakes but not volcanic activity.


Can earthquakes affect plate tectonics?

Earthquakes are a result of the movement of tectonic plates, not the cause. While earthquakes can provide valuable data about the behavior of different plate boundaries, they do not directly affect the overall movement of tectonic plates.


Do earthquakes affect the earth?

It's a shift in the Earth's tectonic plates.


What geological phenomena are due to the movement of the lithosphere's plates?

Movement of the plates can result in a large number of geological phenomena, among which are earthquakes, rifting, volcanism, mountain building, faulting, landslides, changes in global temperatures, and formation of new seas.


How does tectonic plate movement affect the environment?

It causes earthquakes when the plates hit each other.


Countries located near or on the tectonic plates?

All countries are located on tectonic plates - in fact the world is entirely covered with tectonic plates! Where different plates interact with each other the results can affect the countries locally. Where plates push together you can get volcanoes and earthquakes (an example is Japan.) Where plates pull apart there is usually lots of ocean but you can get some calm volcanism, (an example being Iceland.) Where plates rub past one another there can be earthquakes. An example would be the west coast of the USA and the San Andreas Fault.)


Do earthquakes cause sliding plates?

If you mean tetonic plates, then no, sliding tetonic plates cause earthquakes.
