Answer:

The Ring of Fire, also referred to as the Circum-Pacific Belt, is a path along the Pacific Ocean characterized by active volcanoes and frequent earthquakes. The majority of Earth’s volcanoes and earthquakes take place along the Ring of Fire.

We attribute  these occurrences to our location in the Pacific Ring of Fire in the following ways.

  • Each segment of such Ring of Fire experiences volcanic eruptions or earthquakes irrespective of eruptions as well as earthquakes in other areas of the Ring. Between 850–1,000 volcanoes have indeed been operative in the Ring of Fire in the last 11,700 centuries (roughly 2 different of the world's total).
  • Plate tectonics has created this Ring of Fire. Tectonic plates are massive blocks of Earth's mantle that slide together just like jigsaw pieces. The plates really aren't fixed and therefore are continually moving atop the mantle, a mantle of solid & molten rock. These plates occasionally clash, separate, or slide close to one another. Within Ring of Fire, the most tectonic activity takes place in such geologically operative zones.
  • This Ring of Fire comprises 75percent of the nation's volcanoes & 90% of the nation's earthquakes. There are around 1,500  operative volcanoes on the planet. Ocean depths trenches, volcanic eruptions, including earthquakes central elements occur along fault lines, which are the margins where the plates connect.
