GEOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Volcanoes, earthquakes, and mountain ranges can all be found at the site of convergent boundaries. Finally, earthquakes are also found at the site of transform boundaries. Each of our learning activities was a line of evidence.

Detailed explanation-2: -Both volcanoes and earthquakes occur due to movement of the Earth’s tectonic plates. They are both caused by the heat and energy releasing from the Earth’s core. Earthquakes can trigger volcanic eruptions through severe movement of tectonic plates.

Detailed explanation-3: -Plates rip apart at a divergent plate boundary, causing volcanic activity and shallow earthquakes; and. At a convergent plate boundary, one plate dives or “subducts” beneath the other, resulting in a variety of earthquakes and a line of volcanoes on the overriding plate.

Detailed explanation-4: -At constructive plate boundaries, the tectonic plates are moving away from one another. The Earth’s crust is pulled apart to create a new pathway for rising hot magma to flow on to the surface. Volcanoes can sometimes form in these setting; one example is Iceland.
