    Can any body give me a sample answer for this question as I just do not understand what your suppose to write I have went on to the marking scheme for it on examinations.ie and I still dont understand.
    Question:
    Explain, with reference to the examples you have studied, how the theory of plate tectonics helps explain the distribution of earthquakes around the world. (2012 examination paper, 30 marks)

    Most earthquakes occur at destructive plate boundaries, so you would need to discuss them with examples like the Indian and Eurasian plates and how can earthquakes occur at them. (convection currents // subduction // then one plate slips creating powerful shock waves etc) Hope this helps!
