Question

What natural factor most often creates tsunamis?

1.Hurricanes
2.Landslides
3.Volcanoes
4.Earthquakes

Answer 1

4

Step-by-step explanation:

By far, the most destructive tsunamis are generated from large, shallow earthquakes with an epicenter or fault line near or on the ocean floor. These usually occur in regions of the earth characterized by tectonic subduction along tectonic plate boundaries. The high seismicity of such regions is caused by the collision of tectonic plates.
