Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Plate tectonic boundaries were first identified by mapping earthquakes and volcanoes. These events occur along the boundaries of Earth's tectonic plates, making them key indicators of plate boundaries. Mapping the locations of earthquakes and volcanic activity allowed scientists to identify the boundaries between plates and gain a better understanding of plate tectonics.
