The document discusses the layers of the Earth and tectonic plate movement. It then summarizes the effects of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. The Earth consists of a crust, mantle, and core. The crust is made up of tectonic plates that move and cause earthquakes or volcanic eruptions at fault lines. Earthquakes can damage buildings and cause tsunamis or landslides. Volcanic eruptions produce lava flows and ash that impact the environment, climate, and human structures.
