Answer:
No
Explanation:
Earthquakes cannot occur in an area with no fault and no volcanoes.
An earthquake is the sudden movement of within the earth usually along a fault surface.
- Earthquake releases a huge amount of energy that can be very destructive to the surrounding environment where the quake was triggered.
- Tectonic movement due to fault displacement is the leading cause of earthquakes.
- Also, faults can be reactivated by fluid dispersion along fault planes.
Therefore, earthquakes are closely and tightly related to faults and volcanoes.
