Answer: Earthquakes occur as a result of collisions along oceanic-continental convergent boundaries. Majority of the earthquakes occur alongside the Ring of Fire of the Pacific Ocean. The Ring of Fire is found in the basin which is a land area found close to the coastlines of the ocean
It is only logical that mountain ranges form natural watershed boundaries because <u>water </u><u>from </u><u>rain </u><u>and </u><u>melting snow </u><u>flow to the </u><u>river</u>s.
<h3>Sources of Water for rivers. </h3>
- Rainfall and the resulting runoff.
- Water from natural ice.
Both of these come down from mountains and will be impacted by gravity to keep flowing downwards. This then forms or contributes to rivers and explains why mountains are generally next to watersheds.
