Question

What is the general relationship between earthquake epicenters and volcano positions along the Pacific coast of Mexico and Central America? What sort of plate boundary does this relationship indicate?

Answer 1

Geographically throughout this area of Mexico, Central America Caribbean is located the Cocos plate. This area is scientifically known as the Central American subduction zone.

In order for a volcano to form, there is usually a clash between the technical plates that generates the elevation of the ground and the connection with ducts that release the magma from the earth. If this entire area is a subduction area, it will also be a land stress release area where volcano lines will be formed, that is, it is a convergent plate boundary area
