Question

Give reasons for the following 1. Earthquakes are closely associated with volcanic belts.

Answer 1

The belt of volcanic activities and earthquakes are roughly the same because, during explosive volcanic eruptions, the gases try to escape upwards from the magma chamber. Hence, they exert a pressure on the crustal surface which triggers off earthquakes.
Moreover, earthquakes and volcanoes are directly related to the movement of tectonic plates.

Answer 2

Answer:

the movement in the tectonic plate in the active volcano may have the chances of volcanic eruptions.
