Answer 3

Plate boundaries are borders and were faults of earthquakes occur. Think of California's San Andrea's fault and how there have been horrible Earthquakes in that area also, the earthquake in China near the Himalayan Mountains. Those places are near where the plate boundaries are. Usually, the most earthquakes occur near the plate boundaries.

Answer 4

plate boundaries cause earthquakes.

when the friction between the plate boundaries build up and move, an earthquake forms.
