Answer:
Earthquakes and tsunamis are caused by volcanic eruptions that occur in the ocean.
Explanation:
- When magma is released from a volcano, it causes a volcanic eruption. Volcanic eruptions can be gentle and effusive, or they can be violent and destructive. Lava flows are produced by effusive eruptions, while ash and pyroclastic density currents are produced by explosive eruptions.
- Long-period earthquakes caused by volcanoes are caused by vibrations caused by magma or other fluids moving within the volcano. As the pressure within the system rises, the surrounding rock begins to fail, resulting in small earthquakes.
- A tsunami is a series of massive waves caused by an underwater disturbance, most commonly earthquakes beneath or near the ocean. A tsunami can be caused by volcanic eruptions, submarine landslides, and coastal rock falls, as well as a large asteroid impacting the ocean.
