Answer:
An earthquake is the shaking of the surface of the Earth. Earthquakes can be extremely violent. They are caused by weird movements of the Earth's tectonic plates.
The study of earthquakes is called seismology.[1] Earthquakes are usually quite brief, but may repeat. The sudden release of tension in the tectonic plates sends waves of energy that travel through the Earth. Seismology studies the cause, frequency, type and size of earthquakes.
