Question

Compare and contrast an earthquake and a tsunami. Include one way they are similar and two ways they are different.

Answer 1

One way they are similar is because an earthquake causes a tsunami so they are connected. two ways they are not is because ones dealing with water and ones dealing with land, and an earthquake is very sudden while a tsunami, you know its coming and you have time to move.

Answer 2

One way they are the same is, they both disrupt the biosphere weather breaking or any other thing. Two ways they are different is earth quakes usually happen because a plate has moved or is moving. A tsunami has to do with water being drawn back creating a big tidal wave. Another difference is, an earthquake happens very sudden, you can't predict when they are coming. A tsunami you can predict because of the weather that has been happening lately in that area. 

Sorry for the long answer, but hope this helped. :)
