Answer:

The correct answer is option B) "Higher-magnitude earthquakes do not always happen deeper in Earth's crust".

Explanation:

The table shows data of magnitude and depth of earthquakes that occurred at different time and at different locations. By analyzing the data we can conclude that higher-magnitude earthquakes do not always happen deeper in Earth's crust. At first glance we can thought that higher-magnitude earthquakes occur at high depth. However, the earthquake of Michoacan have a higher-magnitude than the earthquake of Alexandria (8 and 6.3, respectively), and the earthquake of Michoacan occurred at 12 miles of depth, while the earthquake of Alexandria occurred at 15 miles of depth.
