Seismometers are tools which measure motion in the ground including seismic waves generated by earthquakes, volcanoes, and other activities which might create seismic waves. Seismometers measure any movement of seismic activity in the earth and today this is done by electronic means whereby the machine measures any changes in seismic activity in the surrounding areas of the seismometer. The first seismometer is believed to have been invented by Zhang Heng of China's Han Dynasty in 132 AD.

Urban planners would most likely consult what when planning for the future of the city
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer: D. demographers

Explanation:

When planning for the future of a city, the urban planners need to ensure that the city is able to afford its current and future residents with the facilities needed to provide them with the maximum welfare possible.

To do this the urban planners should reach out to demographers. Demographers study human populations with a view to analyse and ascertain various characteristics such as size, composition, how they are distributed within a geopolitical zone and most importantly, how they will change overtime.

For urban planners to plan for a city that will take care of future residents as well, they would need to know how the kind of future residents they are planning for and this is when they will turn to demographers whose job it is to study and possibly predict future population.

vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Consider why:

1. Remember, human rights are rights or entitlements every human should/ought to have, so whether they are won by large groups or by individuals they are still rights.

2. Also remember, a large group of people are in themselves individuals who came together forming a group, so in a sense victories won by the group was won by each individual affected by the victory.
