Answer:B. Intensity
Explanation:
The Intensity of an earth quake refers to the noticeable and severity effects of damage on man made structures, natural(crops and livestock) and human life at different locations. To measure the intensity of an earthquake, the Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale is used and consists of 12 levels of intensity(in roman numerals) that rank the extent of damage based on observable effects with the higher levels based on structural damage.
A Level I -V1 Intensity on the scale will show slight damages to properties and treatable injuries to people, but going higher on the scale above VI shows total damage and destruction to structures and human life.
Answer:
The United States has a good amount of freshwater supply over most of the territory, because the American territory is ripe with lakes, rivers, streams, and groundwater.
The quality of these water sources varies from area to area, and many water bodies have been deeply polluted by human activity. However, the United States is a developed country with generally good water treatment facilities.
Notwithstanding, the United States faces two important challenges: one is the growing population of the country, which will put more pressure on freshwater sources in the future. The other one is that a few areas of the country are devoid of water supply sources, and they are among the fastest growing regions of the U.S (Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico). This poises a great challenge for U.S. authorities in the near future.
