Question

The destructive force of an earthquake depends on all the following except: a) the magnitude of the earthquake; b) the composition and texture of rock in the vicinity of the earthquake; c)the depth of an earthquake, d) the distance from a tectonic boundary, e) the design of buildings. The global distribution of earthquake epicenters: a) are randomly distributed across the continents and ocean basins, b) show the and sizes of tectonic plate, c) are concentrated near the of earth's poles, d) are concentrated in the ancient cores of continents, e) shows the depth to the top the subduction zones.

Explanation / Answer

Answer 8 e. the design of building

Tornadoes, Hurricanes, Earthquakes, Volcanoes, Tsunamis and more! Some of these forces change the Earth quickly, while some change the Earth much more slowly. Destructive forces don't always have to be a big event like a tornado

Answer9. a. are randomly distributed across the continents and ocean basins

The epicenters over the Earth’s surface are mostly distributed around lands near the ocean. They are distributed unevenly; most of them are distributed on the edge of the plates. Besides, some of the lands on continental interiors have sporadic distributions.
