an earthquake
Plate tectonics are the effects on continental and oceanic plates as they move and collide. Example :"Geologists study plate tectonics to find future stress points and earthquake zones."
An intraplate earthquake is an earthquake that occurs in the interior of a tectonic plate, whereas an interplate earthquake (plate boundary earthquake) is one that occurs at a plate boundary. Intraplate earthquakes are rare, but both can inflict large amounts of damage to populated areas.
Not by temperature variations at Earth's surface, no. However, temperature variations in Earth's mantle play a role in plate tectonics, and so can affect earthquake activity.
The earthquake in Chile was caused by the Nazca Plate, which is an oceanic tectonic plate, moving beneath the South American Plate, which is a continental plate. The convergence of these two plates resulted in the earthquake.
The shifting of plate tectonics moving by eachother.
yes
an earthquake
earthquake!

plate movement and plate tectonics
Plate tectonics are always moving! they usually do have something to do with earthquakes!
yes it cant:D
By plate Tectonics
There is no conclusive evidence of plate tectonics on Venus. Although Venus does have tectonic features such as fractures and faults, they do not show the same pattern of movement and subduction observed on Earth. Additionally, Venus lacks evidence of large-scale crustal recycling associated with plate tectonics.

because the plates were rubbing together and the tension stored caused the earthquake so its all to do with plate tectonics
