the problem during earthquakes are falling objects. In general the best practice for during earthquakes is toget under tables, chairs, beds, doors, or anything that can withstand high loads.
You should pack emergency food like water bottles and granola bars and canned food and silverware and pack money and clothes and a brush and tooth paste

Which is worse earthquakes or tsunamis?
Earthquakes are worse than tsunamis. Earthquakes are mostly unpredictable but tsunamis are sometimes predictable which sets warning for people to escape shore. Earthquakes destroy buildings but tsunamis don't. When tsunamis hit land, the buildings acts like a strong shield that cuts through the tsunami like what the wind-breaker does to the wind. Earthquakes can do more damage than tsunamis because earthquakes destroy buildings which takes much short time than rebuilding it which tsunamis only cause flash flooding which can be recovered as soon as possible. It's very difficult to escape an earthquake but it's sometimes easy to escape a tsunami. It's very difficult to recover the earthquake damage, therefore earthquakes are considered as the modest natural disaster.
What geologic events occur at transform boundries?
Earthquakes
What is the difference in spreading center earthquakes and subduction zone?
Spreading center earthquakes are always shallow, subduction zone earthquakes can be very deep.Spreading center earthquakes are typically of lower magnitude than subduction zone earthquakes.
What type of earthquakes occur farther inland than other earthquakes?
Intraplate earthquakes occur farther inland than other earthquakes. These earthquakes occur within a tectonic plate, away from plate boundaries where most earthquakes typically occur. Intraplate earthquakes can be caused by ancient faults or stress within the plate itself.
Did any earthquakes happen this week?
Yes. Earthquakes of SOME intensity happen SOMEWHERE every day. There were 2 strong earthquakes today, one in Italy, one in Tonga. The running tally for 26 October 2016 from earthquaketrack.com:99 earthquakes today681 earthquakes in the past 7 days3,156 earthquakes in the past month41,088 earthquakes in the past year

Which gas can be used to predict earthquakes?
Radon is the gas that can [or cannot!] be used to predict earthquakes. Its levels noticeably may rise in basements and wells. That's because of the air and water escape routes that may form in soil 6-24 hours before an earthquake.

How come volcanoes aren't that dangerous as earthquakes and tsunami?
That is because you can predict a volcano eruption before it reupts such as the animals behave differently or ash, lava, smoke, cinda and sand is seen on top of the volcano. There will be enough time to escape before it erupts. However, tsunamis and earthquakes occur suddenly anytime. We will never know when will it happen...
What compares and contrasts earthquakes and tsunamis?
Compare: 1.) They are both natural disasters. 2.) They can kill people. 3.) They are linked to plate tectonics. 4.) Sometimes, they happen together, especially undersea earthquake triggering a tsunami. Contrast: 1.) In the Hong Kong Observatory, there is no earth quake warning but there is tsunami warning. 2.) There is only one way which triggers an earthquake, but there are several ways that triggers a tsunami like undersea earthquake, undersea volcano, severe undersea landslide, etc. 3.) Earthquakes destroy buildings, tsunami don't. 4.) Earthquakes are measured in Richter scale while tsunami is measured in tsunami scale. 5.) Tsunami comes from a Japanese word meaning "harbour wave". 6.) Earthquakes are mostly unpredictable, but tsunamis are sometimes predictable. 7.) Earthquakes vary in intensity while tsunami vary in height. 8.) It's difficult to escape an earthquake but it's easy to escape a tsunami. 9.) Earthquakes are considered as the modest or worst natural disasters ever.
How do earthquakes can be used to infer plate boundaries?
alright so when tectonic plates meet there are earthquakes because when the plates collide with each other because the earth is always moving it creates giant earthquakes that push and pull the tectonic plates on the crust of earth causing earth quakes. Volcanoes form at the boundaries of tectonic plates because it is one of the only places on the earths crust where there are holes in the crust so the liquid mantle (lava) can escape through the earths crust. forming volcanoes.

Is release to do with volcanoes or earthquakes?

What are the three types of earhquakes?
The three types of earthquakes are tectonic earthquakes, volcanic earthquakes, and collapse earthquakes. Tectonic earthquakes are the most common and are caused by the movement of earth's plates. Volcanic earthquakes occur in association with volcanic activity, while collapse earthquakes happen in underground mines and caverns.
Are earthquakes geological?
Yes, earthquakes are geological.
