Answer:
Options (2), (3), (4), and (7)
Explanation:
The factors that affects the number of deaths and the amount of damage caused by an earthquake depends upon the following things-
(1) Magnitude- The magnitude of an earthquake controls the amount of damage and loss of people. A high magnitude earthquake can cause greater damage in comparison to a low magnitude earthquake.
(2) Distance- The distance also plays an important role. When the distance from an earthquake is short, then the places nearby, at a certain radius gets affected very badly. Whereas, the places that are at a far distance, are not affected much by the earthquake.
(3) Depth- The depth of an earthquake depicts the epicenter distance. Shallow depth earthquakes are responsible for massive destruction. But, the deep focus earthquakes does not affect much unless it has a much stronger magnitude.
(4) Material that is used for construction of buildings- The type of materials that is used for construction purpose also is important. Weaker materials are easily broken down resulting in the collapsing of building. So, hard and resistant rock must be selected in order to maintain the stability of the buildings.
Thus, the correct answers are options (2), (3), (4), and (7).

Answer:
<u>1. c. Peruvian coast, 2. c. Asia, 3. c. Paris, 4. Andes</u>
Explanation:
- Peru is located on the western coast of South America and faces the pacific ocean and located in the southern hemisphere it shares the longest border with brazil. Having a total area of 1,285,215.6 km square.
- Due to the latitude, mountain ranges and topography variations and the two oceanic currents like the Humboldt and El Niño which bring a diverse tropical climate of wt and dry spells to this region thus experiences a drought type conditions of the coasts of Peru.
- Places on earth most likely to encounter the trade winds are in Asia as these winds are moving in an east to west direction following the earth equatorial region, i.e 30 degrees North and South.
- To get the shortest flight from Los Angles to Moscow the plane would have to land in Paris as to refuel and thus making it the shortest flight by less than half-hour.
- Andes mountain runs parallel through the south American north to south borders.
