Answer 2

Answer:

The ring of fire is also knows the rim of fire and is a realm of the pacific ocean and forms a major basin of the of the pacific ocean and is thus know for the nature of the volcanic eruption and the earth quakes and thus forma s ring shaped zone.

Explanation:

• As explained above the ring is a circle of the volcanoes that is surrounded by the pacific ocean and encompasses the trenches and the form an area of 40,000 km and has more than 542 volcanoes. As said about 90% of the volcanic eruption occurs in this zone.

• This zone stretches from the tip of the Andes mountain s to the end f the new Zealand islands. This ring of fire results for the subduction of the two plates that tend to collide with each other and also the presence of the Mariana tench zone on the western side is an important zone for this tectonic activity.

• About 17% of the major earthquakes occur in this zone, and also the presence of the San Andreas fault also lies near the pacific ring of fire.
