What is tyhe cause of earthquakes on earth's surface?
The earth's crust is made up of plates that are always moving. If suddenly one moves on top or under another, than the earth shakes and it forms an earthquake or tremor, depending on how much the plates moved ( a tremor is a small earthquake.) Earthquakes only occur where the plates meet, for example in Japan and America there are lots of earthquakes because lots of plates meet on the area above them. The lines where the plates meet are called fault lines

What occurs on faults?
The tectonic plates underneath the earths crust are moving, and these plates crash into, and slide against each other. These places where the plates meet are called fault lines. Since the plates are constantly moving, there is a lot of pressure between the plates, and eventually, it needs to be released in the form of an earthquake.
