Question
where do earthquakes most commonly occur?
only in the ocean
along tectonic plate edges
randomly around the world
Brief Explanations
Earthquakes are caused by the movement and interaction of tectonic plates. The edges of these plates are where most stress and friction build up, leading to sudden releases of energy that cause earthquakes. They do not only occur in oceans, nor are they randomly distributed.
