A. Earthquakes
An earthquake (also known as a
quake, tremor or temblor) is the shaking of the surface of the Earth, resulting
from the sudden release of energy in the Earth's lithosphere that creates
seismic waves. Earthquakes can be violent enough to toss people around and
destroy whole cities. The seismicity or seismic activity of an area refers to
the frequency, type and size of earthquakes experienced over a period of time. In
modern popular culture, the portrayal of earthquakes is shaped by the memory of
great cities laid waste, such as Kobe in 1995 or San Francisco in 1906.Fictional
earthquakes tend to strike suddenly and without warning
