Answer:

The correct answer is - A wood-frame house built on bedrock.

Explanation:

An earthquake would damage a steel-frame building built on sediment in comparison of a wooden house built on the bedrock due to the fact that waves of an earthquake do not go through solid things easily such as the earth core or the bedrock land rather than reclaimed land or sediments.

So, the bedrock will shake less than the hotel or heave building built on sediment. A house that made up of wooden-frame would shake only whereas the steel-frame might damage more.
