Answer:

In the equator region there are almost no earthquakes because of the lack of corolian strength in that region.

Step-by-step explanation:

The corolis force moves large layers of air at rapid speed, which is one of the main factors in the formation of hurricanes and cyclones. This force is also responsible for the movement of ocean currents. A curious fact about the corolis force is that it promotes the movement of the winds in one direction in the southern hemisphere and promotes the same movement in the northern hemisphere, but in the opposite direction. However, the meeting point between these two movements promotes zero movement intensity, which makes hurricane formation difficult. This region of zero movement is the equator.
