Answer:

C. Understand the process

Explanation:

When scientists create models of earthquakes, they are trying to learn more about them to try and keep people safe in the event that one does happen. It is practically impossible to change the location of an earthquake or stop it from occuring, since earthquakes are caused by the movement of massive continental plates. Scientists also definitely do not want to increase the waves formed in the process, as this would contribute to the damage. Therefore, the correct answer is choice C, understand the process. Hope this helps!
