Content Standard
The learner demonstrates understanding of the relationship among the locations of volcanoes,
earthquake epicenters and mountain Ranges.
Objectives
1. Describe the distribution of active volcanoes, earthquake epicenters, and major mountain belts.
2. Determine the scientific basis for dividing the Lithospheric plates.
Introduction
Determining the location of earthquake epicenters plays a vital role in laying the foundations of
plate tectonics. Let us see how early geologists used the plotted positions of earthquake epicenters
throughout the world in conceptualizing crustal movements.
