Question

multiple choice question
where do most earthquakes occur?
o along plate boundaries
o at hot spots
o in the centers of continents
need help? review these concept resources.

Explanation:

Most earthquakes occur along plate boundaries. Plate tectonics theory states that the Earth's lithosphere is divided into plates. When these plates interact (diverge, converge, or slide past each other) at their boundaries, stress builds up. When the stress is released suddenly, it causes an earthquake. In the centers of continents, there is less tectonic activity. Hot - spots are mainly associated with volcanic activity rather than the majority of earthquakes.

Answer:

along plate boundaries
