from your data what can you infer about the relationship between earthquakes and volcanoes?
238232
For example, most earthquakes are along the edges of tectonic plates. This is where most volcanoes are too. However, most earthquakes are caused by the interaction of the plates not the movement of magma . Most earthquakes directly beneath a volcano are caused by the movement of magma.

Most volcanoes and earthquakes happen where they do because of how the Earth's outer layers behave. ... The most common tsunami trigger is submarine earthquakes, but they can also be set off by a volcanic eruption under, or next to, the sea. Thus volcanoes, earthquakes and tsunamis are part of the same story.

Movements of tectonic plates create volcanoes along the plate boundaries, which erupt and form mountains. A volcanic arc system is a series of volcanoes that form near a subduction zone where the crust of a sinking oceanic plate melts.

The earth's plates are being constantly moved by convection currents found in the mantle. Around the Pacific plate. Volcanoes and earthquakes are both found on plate boundaries.
69003
Volcanoes erupt because of density and pressure. The lower density of the magma relative to the surrounding rocks causes it to rise (like air bubbles in syrup). It will rise to the surface or to a depth that is determined by the density of the magma and the weight of the rocks above it.
527662
The volcanoes and earthquakes are likely to occur along the plate boundaries.
397326
Volcanoes are formed by eruptions of lava and ash when magma rises through cracks or weak-spots in the Earth's crust. A build up of pressure in the earth is released, by things such as a plate movement which forces molten rock to exploded into the air causing a volcanic eruption.

Upper layer of rock slides over the lower layer leading to release of a tremendous amount of energy which causes Earthquakes. Explain the relation between fold mountains and volcanoes – As two plates converge, the denser plate subducts under the lighter plate.

Volcanoes are associated with three types of tectonic structures: convergent plate boundaries, divergent plate boundaries and hot spots. California has all three. The SAF is a transform plate boundary (strike slip fault) and so is not accompanied by volcanic activity.

['A volcano is formed by eruptions of lava and ash.', 'Volcanoes are usually cone shaped mountains or hills.', "When magma reaches the Earth's surface it is called lava. ... ", 'Volcanic eruptions can happen at destructive and constructive boundaries , but not at conservative boundaries or collision zones .']

To scientists, volcanoes are known as “constructive” forces. That is, volcanoes often result in the construction of new landforms. “Destructive” forces are those like erosion or weathering in which landforms are broken down into smaller pieces like soil and sand.

['Before an Eruption. Before a volcano erupts, there is normally an increase in earthquakes and tremors near and under the volcano. ... ', 'Volcanic Gas. During an eruption of a volcano, gases dissolved in the magma are released into the air. ... ', 'Lava. ... ', 'Volcanic Landslide. ... ', 'Pyroclastic Flows. ... ', 'Volcanic Ash.']

Volcanoes form at Earth's surface whereas earthquakes originate from deeper within the crust. ... Volcanoes are formed by release of gas and magma. Earthquakes are caused by movement along a fault. Volcanoes lead to the formation of new rock whereas earthquakes simply cause waves which disturb the rock.

Causes & characteristics of Earthquakes. Earthquakes are vibrations in the Earth's crust that cause shaking at the surface. They are highly unpredictable and often occur suddenly without warning. As yet, we have no way of fully and accurately predicting when an earthquake will occur.

Subduction zones and earthquakes. Subduction zones are plate tectonic boundaries where two plates converge, and one plate is thrust beneath the other. This process results in geohazards, such as earthquakes and volcanoes.
690719
Volcanoes form when tectonic plates collide and one plate is pushed beneath another. Tectonic plates also move away from one another to produce volcanoes. Hot magma rises from the mantle at mid-ocean ridges pushing the plates apart. ... Volcanoes also form when plates move apart.

The movement of molten rock in the mantle causes convection currents which makes the plates move. The study of these plates is called plate tectonics. Most earthquakes and volcanoes eruptions take place at plate boundaries. The crust is solid and is the layer we live on.
