The major volcanic belt is a ring of fire and the seismic belt of the world includes the Pacific seismic belt, Alpine-Himalayan, and Mid-ocean Ridge seismic belt.
Explanation:
- The former one is larger and also called a ring of fire. The outline of the belt corresponds to the Pacific plate.
- The other belt corresponds to the different plates of Eurasian, African and Arabian.
- When these belts move, they give rise to various natural occurrences such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tsunami, etc. causing a good amount of harm to the human population.
- Pacific seismic belt is the largest Seismic belt of all.
- Alpine-Himalayan contains an 'array of mountain' areas continuing on the 'southern margin of Eurasia'.
- 'Ridge sesmic belt' is the most prominent 'active Seismic belts' where most of the Earthquake are located continuously with a 'narrow axial zone'.
