Question
the grim reaper maps where quakes occur most. what does he find? random spots everywhere only near volcanoes only in cities mostly along plate boundaries
Earthquakes are caused by the movement of tectonic plates. Most earthquakes occur along the boundaries of these plates (convergent, divergent, transform boundaries) where stress builds up and is released. They are not random, not only near volcanoes (though some volcanoes are at plate boundaries), and not only in cities (cities can be in non - seismic areas or seismic areas, but quakes aren't limited to cities). So the correct answer is the option about mostly along plate boundaries.
