Answer:

<em>C. can cause wet, silty or sandy sediment to turn into an unstable slurry.</em>

Explanation:

Liquefaction occurs <em>whenever finely ground, water-logged silt on or around the surface of the ground weaken their strength in response to shifting of strong ground.</em>

Liquefaction happening underneath structures as well as other buildings during earthquakes may cause serious damage.

<em>Solid earth becomes liquid in some cases and therefore can swallow cars and roads, and even collapse structures which may sit on top of the diminishing soil. </em>

This "liquifaction" could be the most dangerous aspect of the catastrophe.

skelet666 [1.2K]

sound argument  has the feature that if the premises are true the conclusion is certain to be true.

A true conclusion is necessary for a good argument. TRUE: A sound argument has all true premises and is valid. As long as all of the premises are true, the conclusion must also be true, which is how a logical argument works.

A statement in an argument known as a premise serves as justification or support for the conclusion. An argument may contain one or more premises. In an argument, a conclusion is a declaration that summarizes the main points the arguer is attempting to persuade the reader or listener of. What does the argument seek to demonstrate?
