The term ring of fire was used to describe an annular solar eclipse (an event not related to earthquakes) that happened last February 26, 2017 (a Sunday). An annular solar eclipse happens when the moon passes between the Earth and the Sun but only covers the sun's center, (as opposed to a total solar eclipse in which the entire sun is covered) creating a "ring of fire".

Hope my answer helps.

The equator runs north-south roughly through the middle of the continent of Africa. Answer
Bas_tet [7]
This is false, as the equator does not run north-south. The equators is the line that goes all around the planet in equal distance from the two poles: so it runs west-east.

It is true however that it runs roughly through the middle of the continent of Africa, but rather on the west-east axis.
