What are the consequences of earthquakes?

The consequences could be structural damage, damaged gas lines, tidal waves, fires, avalanches and flooding. Hope this helps! #Brainiac

true. earthquakes are felt whenever there is a slip around a fault in the rocks below the earth. this reorientation of faults create sesmic waves and is known as earthquake, the severity of which is measured in richter scale. these are more prominent in hilly regions as the rocks usually form faults to balance the pressures on it.
