Answer:

Me do

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.

Answer:

A Little

Explanation:

An earthquake is what happens when two blocks of the earth suddenly slip past one another. The surface where they slip is called the fault or fault plane. The location below the earth’s surface where the earthquake starts is called the hypocenter, and the location directly above it on the surface of the earth is called the epicenter.

Sometimes an earthquake has foreshocks. These are smaller earthquakes that happen in the same place as the larger earthquake that follows. Scientists can’t tell that an earthquake is a foreshock until the larger earthquake happens. The largest, main earthquake is called the mainshock. Mainshocks always have aftershocks that follow. These are smaller earthquakes that occur afterwards in the same place as the mainshock. Depending on the size of the mainshock, aftershocks can continue for weeks, months, and even years after the mainshock.

Where might you look in the internet to find good scientific information about an illness
ololo11 [35]
Just look up the illness you want information about in your search engine (for example, Google, bing, or yahoo) and find a website that ends in .org, .edu, or .gov. those are the most trustworthy websites to find good information. websites that end in .com are mostly not trustworthy because anyone can have a website that ends in .com and could tell you false information. websites ending .edu are owned by colleges and have better information for you.
