GEOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -This sudden release of energy causes the seismic waves that make the ground shake. During and after the earthquake, the plates or blocks of rock start moving-and they continue to move until they get stuck again. The spot underground where the rock first breaks is called the focus, or hypocenter of the earthquake.

Detailed explanation-2: -Volcano A volcano is a very deep hole in the Earth’s top layer that can let out hot gasses, ash and lava. Active A volcano that has erupted recently and there is a possibility that it will erupt again.

Detailed explanation-3: -An earthquake is a weak to violent shaking of the ground produced by the sudden movement of rock materials below the earth’s surface. The earthquakes originate in tectonic plate boundary.

Detailed explanation-4: -Does the earth open up during an earthquake? No! A common misconception is that of a hole in the ground that opens during an earthquake to swallow up unfortunate victims. This has nothing to do with reality but is Hollywood’s version of earthquakes.
