Answer:

Japan is situated in a volcanic zone on the Pacific Ring of Fire. Most of the earthquakes following that occurred in Japan happened because of a destructive plate boundary. This is when continental and oceanic plates collide and the heavier, more dense oceanic plate sinks underneath the continental one.

Earthquakes are most common at tectonic plate boundaries where different plates meet called fault line. They were thought to not occur anywhere but near plate boundaries.

Which of the following is not a convergent boundary A. Continental Volcanic B., Oceanic Oceanic C. Continental Continental D. Oc
ira [324]
<span>The Continental-volcanic is not a convergent boundary. A convergent boundary is a destructive plate boundary. It is a region where two or more tectonic plates move towards each other and collide. A good example of this is the San Andreas fault off the West Coast of America. When these plates collide, they can either cause an earthquake or a volcano to erupt. The intensity of the earthquake or volcano eruption depends on the speed at which the tectonic plates collide</span>
