Answer:

Areas with volcanoes have earthquake epicenters because volcanic activity resulted shaking of ground known as volcanic earthquake. ... The distribution of earthquake epicenters, volcanoes, and mountain ranges serves as the basis for the scientist in dividing the Earth's lithosphere into several segments called plates.

The distributions of mountain range earthquake epicenter and volcanoes

are explained in the following:

  • When an earthquake strikes, mountain ranges will form around the epicentre. When the magma melts, it becomes lava, which has been erupted by the volcano, and the Volcano will erupt when the earth reaches its maximum temperature.
  • Earthquakes usually occur in tiny, narrow areas at plate borders. The plate boundary is home to the bulk of volcanoes.
  • A highly active seismic zone can be found along the west coasts of North and South America. Volcanoes can sometimes be found in the center of plates (e.g. Hawaii).
  • Near volcanoes serve as tectonic plate borders., earthquake epicenters, and large mountain belts.
  • Active volcanoes, Mountain ranges, and earthquake epicentres are all found in the same location. When volcanoes erupt, earthquakes cause plates to quickly move in one of three directions: towards each other, apart from each other, or past each other.
