Answer:

The answer is D) Earthquakes and Volcanoes

Step-by-step explanation:

The asthenosphere of the earth is divided into blocks called "Tectonic plates".

These plates are in continuous motion.

When two plates collide with each other, energy accumulates and when this large amount of energy is released, earthquakes occur.

In addition, it can also cause the eruption of a volcano due to the great underground activity generated below them.

Then you can know where the edges of the tectonic plates are located by knowing where the earthquake and eruption of a volcano occurred.
