OFF

Answer explanation

* Two plates are trying to move past each other

* The plates become locked

* Pressure builds as the plates continue to try to move

* Pressure is finally released and the plates move suddenly (jolt)

* This sends shockwaves through the crust from the focus

* Shockwaves are felt most strongly at the epicentre on the surface
