8 0

1. The point inside the crust where the pressure is released is called the focus . The point on the Earth's surface above the focus is called the epicentre . Earthquake energy is released in seismic waves.

2. The magnitude of an earthquake is related to the total area of its fault rupture. ... When a fault ruptures unilaterally (with the epicenter at or near the end of the fault break) the waves are stronger in one direction along the fault.

Therefore John's genotype would be Aa
