what is it
Edges of tectonic plates
They're spread around the world... usually along the edges of tectonic plates.
because they form from earthquakes
The hot spots occur around the edges of tectonic plates as they grind, move or slide past each other. One plate will be pushed down into the mantle and heats up. This creates molten rock and forces capable of forming volcanoes. Mark the sites of volcanoes and the edges of the plates can be mapped.
They could meet and cause an earthquake.
Around the edges of tectonic plates.
Tectonic plates and fault lines created by the movement of tectonic plates.
plate boundary
No, earthquakes form all around the world. They form on the edges of the tectonic plates
Edges of tectonic plates
Gulfs are found around the edges of oceans. They are usually formed by movements of tectonic plates under Earth's crust.

Earthquakes are mostly found at the edges of plates because that is the area of which the plates collide in different ways resulting in earthquakes and volcanoes.

I'm afraid I only know the cause. When the edges of the tectonic plates rub together it causes vibrations, that is the earthquake.
