Answer:
Block Mountains are formed when the two tectonic plates move away from each other causing cracks on the surface of the Earth. Block mountains are generally wider in length as compared tot eh fold mountains.
Primary waves travel faster, move in a push-pull pattern, travel through solids, liquids and gases, and cause less damage due to their smaller size. Secondary waves travel slower, move in an up-and-down pattern, travel only through solids, and cause more damage due to their greater size.
Volcanoes form at Earth's surface whereas earthquakes originate from deeper within the crust. ... Volcanoes are formed by release of gas and magma. Earthquakes are caused by movement along a fault.
