Explanation:
An earthquake is caused by a sudden slip on a fault. The tectonic plates are always slowly moving, but they get stuck at their edges due to friction.
There are many different types of earthquakes: tectonic, volcanic, and explosion. The type of earthquake depends on the region where it occurs and the geological make-up of that region. The most common are tectonic earthquakes.
The National Earthquake Information Center (NEIC) locates an average of 50 earthquakes every day, or about 20,000 a year.
Mountain ranges, wide plains, river systems, rain forests (rain forests being the main one)
