1. Earthquakes and volcanoes often occur in close proximity to each other along tectonic plate boundaries.
2. The majority of earthquakes and volcanoes occur along plate boundaries.
3. Earthquakes are caused by the movement and interaction of tectonic plates, whereas volcanoes are usually associated with the convergent or divergent plate boundaries.
4. Subduction zones, where one tectonic plate is forced beneath another, often result in both earthquakes and volcanoes.
5. Transform plate boundaries, where two plates slide past each other horizontally, can also cause earthquakes but are less likely to result in volcanic activity.
