Earthquakes as Evidence of Motion
Earthquakes as Evidence of Motion is a skill on Pengi from Lesson 4: Moving Plates in Amplify Science (California) Grade 7.
Key Concepts
The primary evidence for plate motion comes from earthquakes . Earthquakes occur because the plates are moving and grinding against each other at their boundaries.
When energy builds up from this friction and is suddenly released, the ground shakes. The fact that earthquakes consistently happen along plate boundaries proves that the plates are active and moving relative to one another, rather than being locked in place.
