Answer 1

Explanation:

1. this is because in the region of young fold mountains there are many cracks and faults which were caused when the mountains were formed. A movement along the line of fracture called fault causes tectonic earthquake..

2. folding and faulting create a abnormal tension inside the earth crusts which leads to unequal levalling of the mantel and hence it forms pressure on the surface of earth.

3. most earthquake directly beneath a volcano are caused by the movement of magma. the magma exerts pressure on the rock.

4. yes, because it is the most cool part of India.
