Answer:

The epicenter to a biologically impaired person is simply, the point where the devastation is much. The point where the earthquake originates.

Explanation:

I will further explain thus, between California and Los Angeles is about 50  miles apart. That is about 190 towns in between. So, whatever devastation we feel hear, will be triple what they will feel at the epicenter. Epicenter is where the damages to structures and environment are most.

I can go further to use what happens bomb exploxion to further drive home the meaning. If there is a bomb {grenade} explosion, the point where the explosion occurs has more devastation than areas about 100 meters away.

What is a divergent boundary
german
In plate tectonics, a divergent boundary or divergent plate boundary (also known as a constructive boundary or an extensional boundary) is a linear feature that exists between two tectonic plates that are moving away from each other. Divergent boundaries within continents initially produce rifts which eventually become rift valleys. Most active divergent plate boundaries occur between oceanic plates and exist as mid-oceanic ridges. Divergent boundaries also form volcanic islands which occur when the plates move apart to produce gaps which molten lava rises to fill.

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

Compared to the valley, the ridge is relatively wet and cool.

Explanation:

The ridge is relatively wet and cool in comparison with the valley. Due to the mountains that surround the valley, the cool air does not enter the valley. This makes the valley hotter in contrast with the ridge. Also, it makes the ridge wet owing to the pressure and the low temperature that the air has.
