Both C and D answers show uncorrect statements about the 2010 Haiti earthquake.

Answer C states that the quake registered at 7.8 on the Richter scale, but that's not true. The earthquake occurred inland on January 12, 2010, approximately 15 km southwest of Port-au-Prince and at a depth of 10 km at 16:53 local time. It recorded 7.0 on the Richter scale.

Answer D affirms that the death toll was less than 1,000, but this is also incorrect. The effects caused on this country were devastating. The bodies recovered on January 25 exceeded 150,000, calculating that the death toll would exceed 200,000. The final data of those affected were released by Prime Minister Jean-Max Bellerive on the first anniversary of the earthquake, the January 12, 2011, stating that 316,000 people died in the earthquake, 350,000 more were injured, and more than 1.5 million people were left homeless.

Which of the following statements regarding civil liberties and civil rights is correct? *
Olin [163]

Answer: Civil liberties impose limits on the government's ability to interfere in our individual lives

Explanation:

Civil rights are there to ensure that people are treated equally in a country regardless of some of their characteristics such as race, gender or disability.

Civil liberties on the other hand are those basic freedoms that people should have in a country. In the U.S. that includes the Bill of Rights which protects things like: freedom of speech, freedom of assembly and the right to privacy.

Civil liberties therefore limit the government's ability to interfere in individual lives by guaranteeing the freedom of individuals to live a certain way.
