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.

What is a section of the lithosphere that slowly moves over the asthenosphere carrying pieces of continental and oceanic crust?

The section of the lithosphere that slowly moves over the asthenosphere carrying pieces of continental and oceanic crust is known as a tectonic plate. These plates are part of the Earth's outer shell and are divided into several major and minor plates that interact with each other at plate boundaries. The movement of these plates is driven by the heat generated from the Earth's core, causing them to either converge, diverge, or slide past each other, leading to various geological phenomena such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and mountain formation.
