Answer:

D:The rock that shifted to cause earthquake B released more energy

Explanation:

The magnitude of an earthquake is a function of the intensity of the earthquake and energy it releases.

An earthquake is a sudden movement within the earth which causes a release of energy.

  • The magnitude of earthquakes is reported by the intensity of the quakes from the source.
  • Earthquakes with a high intensity will have a high energy.

Lapatulllka [165]

According to the graph, we can see the total fertility rates that can be compared to the population growth rates, as shown in option C. Thus, option C is the correct answer.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • The chart analyzes the NIR of the regions.
  • The NIR is related to the percentage of growth that a population achieved during one year.
  • The chart analyzes this value, associating it with the natural growth of these regions.
  • This natural growth shows how much the population of a country has grown, without considering the migration that takes place in a country, that is, without considering the people who have moved between regions of the country.

In this case, we know that the graph considers population growth taking into account the birth rate and therefore considering the fertility rate, in one year.
