Answer:

Earthquakes occur in mountains

Explanation:

There are many earthquakes and many mountain ranges around the world are formed by these processes and are also experience earthquakes (such as the Himalayas and the western edge of north and south America)...As the volcanic mountains are also a result of tectonic convergence, the north island also experiences a high frequency of earthquakes. Hope this helped! :)
