Question

A student studies that some areas are more prone to earthquakes than others. What
might be the possible reason for a frequent earthquake?

Answer 1

Answer:

Some areas are more prone to earthquakes than others because they sit on the edges of tectonic plates.

                                   (another way of writing the answer)

Earthquakes occur far from the edges of plates, along faults. Faults are cracks in the earth where sections of a plate (or 2 plates) are moving in different directions.
