Explanation:

The ring of fire is a path in the Pacific Ocean that has a lot of active volcanoes that result from subduction of oceanic plates beneath the continental plates. Because of the movement of the tectonic plates in this area many earthquakes happen.

true. earthquakes are felt whenever there is a slip around a fault in the rocks below the earth. this reorientation of faults create sesmic waves and is known as earthquake, the severity of which is measured in richter scale. these are more prominent in hilly regions as the rocks usually form faults to balance the pressures on it.
