Solution
The correct option is B Mitigation
A sudden accident or a natural catastrophe that
causes great damage or loss of life and property is called a disaster. It can
be natural like earth quakes, tsunami, floods etc and artificial disasters like

which is to reduce the effect of disaster for example, construction of wooden
houses instead of concrete in disaster prone countries like Japan.
