The Correct answer is:
C. a decrease in the available water. (i just took the quiz and got it wrong because the ohter answer shows A and it isnt correct.)
1. Fault scarps and traces in the soft alluvium erode in a very short time or may be rapidly covered by new deposits thereby quickly hiding evidence of earthquake fault lines. Faults in places like California, where rocks are at or near the ground surface, are much easier to study because the faults are readily found, seen, measured and analyzed.
2. Earthquakes normally occur at fault lines, because the tectonic plates are in an unstable state around them. Despite being away from a plate boundary, the New Madrid Fault is a fault area under tension. If this tension releases, an earthquake will result.
3. Earthquakes are one of the dangers due to the fault which results in damage to homes, deaths, and so on.
4. The 1811–12 New Madrid earthquakes were an intense intraplate earthquake series beginning with an initial earthquake of moment magnitude 7.5–7.9 on December 16, 1811, followed by a moment magnitude 7.4 aftershock on the same day
