The statement that best provides an inference about seismic activity along the San Andreas fault is D - <em>By studying "seismic gaps," scientists know that the next earthquake to occur along the san Andreas fault will happen in the San Francisco Bay area with the next decade.</em>

A Seismic Gap, is a segment of the fault where no earthquakes have taken place for a very long time. Due to the build up of stresses in the San Francisco Bay area, scientists have deduced that one is overdue, the last one being in 1906. Scientists have been successful in forecasting earthquakes by studying these gaps, deducing that there is a 100-150 year interval between large ones.

Well we can look at this question and eliminate Rhetorical Question due to the fact the excerpt above isn't asking anything. We can also eliminate an allusion because this is not an allusion it is a dream. We can then eliminate Logo's because it is a Greek word meaning logic. Pathos makes no sense because there is not pity or sadness involved. So the only option left is A)Ethos. I hope this helps

How does the information in the NASA article best add to a reader’s understanding of Team Moon?
prisoha [69]

Answer:

The correct answer to the question is number 2. Team Moon, written by Catherine Thimmesh (2006), is a book that portrays the enormous effort of the 400.000 people who made Apollo 11 land on the moon. But not only that, it concretely reflects the emotions felt by those people whose dedication, suffering, and strength gave place to such historical event.
