Volcanoes, mountains, and earthquake epicenters are often located along tectonic plate boundaries. Many volcanoes and epicenters occur near the edges of continents where plates are colliding or pulling apart. Mountain ranges also form in these areas due to the compression and uplift of crustal material. The distribution of these geological features indicates that Earth's lithosphere is broken into plates that move relative to each other, causing seismic and volcanic activity near plate boundaries.

YOU COMPLETE ME QUESTIONS 1. What is your guide in completing the map? 2. How important is the boundary between plates. 3. What geologic features formed between them? PLATES-Earths fragmented outermost layer that are moving relative to one another as they sit on top of hot, semifluid material beneath them.
PLATE BOUNDARY-the point where two
or more plates meet MAP OF EARTHQUAKE DISTRIBUTION How are earthquakes distributed on the map?
Earthquakes are mainly distributed
along the edges of plates on the map Where is the location of earthquake epicenter in the map? Where is the location of earthquake epicenter in the map?
Epicenter is the point on the Earth's
surface directly above a hypocenter or focus, the point where an earthquake or an underground explosion originates Where is the location of earthquake epicenter in the map? located near the edges of the continents, some are in the mid continents and others are in the oceans. Why do you think earthquake epicenters are located in these areas? Why do you think earthquake epicenters are located in these areas?
the movements of plates are
mostly found between boundaries of plates Where are places with no earthquakes? Where are places with no earthquakes?
large part of the Pacific ocean, northernmost Asia,
majority of Europe, eastern portion of North and South America and western Africa. Why is it important for us identify areas which are prone to earthquakes? Why is it important for us identify areas which are prone to earthquakes?
It is important to identify areas which
are prone to earthquakes so that necessary precautions could be done if ever you’re living in one of those places. MAP OF ACTIVE VOLCANOES OF THE WORLD How are volcanoes distributed? How are volcanoes distributed?
Volcanoes are not randomly
distributed. Majority of them are found along the edges of some continents. Where are they located? Where are active volcanoes located?
Majority are found along the edges of
some continents, particularly in the western coast of North and South America, East and South East Asia. Compare the location of majority of earthquake epicenters with the location of volcanoes around the world Compare the location of majority of earthquake epicenters with the location of volcanoes around the world
Mountain ranges are found in places
where volcanoes and/or earthquake epicenters are also located MOUNTAIN RANGES OF THE WORLD How are mountain ranges distributed? How are mountain ranges distributed?
Mountain ranges are found in places
where volcanoes and earthquake epicenters are also located. Is it possible to find mountain ranges on places where volcanoes and earthquake epicenters are located? LET US SUMMARIZE
Mountain ranges are found in places where
volcanoes and/or earthquake epicenters are also located These geologic activities such as seismicity (occurrence of earthquake), volcanism and mountain formation are the basis of scientists in dividing Earth’s lithosphere. In a ¼ sheet of paper 1. An area of land that rises steeply from the land around it 2. A long line of mountains that were formed at about the same time and by the same process 3. A group of mountains Essay: Sum it up! How are volcanoes, mountains and earthquake epicenter distributed?
