Explain what causes earthquakes and at what types of plate boundaries are earthquakes common.

Plates move away from one another at divergent boundaries. This happens at mid-ocean ridges. Plates move towards one another at convergent boundaries; one plate is forced below another in a process called subduction.

Earthquakes can occur anywhere in a plate and can be caused by any boundary type. But they are much more common near convergent boundaries.
