Solution
This statement is True.
Explanation:
Tremors on the earth can indeed be caused by the eruption of a volcano. The release of magma and gases during a volcanic eruption can generate seismic waves, leading to volcanic tremors or earthquakes. These tremors occur due to the sudden movement of the earth’s crust as magma forces its way to the surface.
