The earthquakes experienced in California are related to tectonic plates because these catastrophic events are the result of -
a
two tectonic plates sliding past each other.
b
tectonic plates melting as they slide into the mantle.
c
tectonic plates being weathered over time.
d
two tectonic plates pulling away from each other.
