1.

A. An earthquake happens when plates move and send shock waves through earth's crust.
B. Earth's crust moves along cracks called faults.
C. Earthquakes often occur due to shock waves.

2. There are lots of faults close to plate margins because that is where the plates move and interact with each other, creating stress and strain that can lead to earthquakes.

3. Movements in the mantle create convection currents that cause pressure and tension on the earth's crust, leading to the formation of faults that can cause earthquakes.
