Earthquakes

Pressure from within Earth's crust

Hurricanes

Human activity

Changes in temperature within the earth's mantle

All tectonic plates are located at Earth's core

They're located approximately 10 meters below the surface of the ocean

They're located in the molten layer beneath Earth's crust

All of Earth's landmass rests on tectonic plates

Pressure and heat have similar effects on solids

Pressure raises the melting point of solids

Pressure lowers the melting point of solids

Pressure has no effect on the melting point of solids

New volcanoes form every few years.

The shape and location of the continents have changed over time.

Tectonic activity probably caused the last Ice Age.

Earthquakes will continue long after hurricanes and tsunamis have stopped.

It creates more sustained motion on the surface.

It reaches the surface faster.

It reaches deeper below the surface.

It travels farther from the hypocenter

Because they are all volcanically active

Because they serve as boundaries between nations

Because Earth's crust shifts on either side of them

Because people must actively avoid faults to escape injury
