The best bibliogaphic entry would probably be: Smythe, Clark. <em>Unsinkable: Folly on the Titanic</em> Little, Brown: New York, 1976.
That is because it seems to be a book about the Titanic itself, whereas the other ones have to do with:
- topics which are less directly related to the subject-matter (the first entry is about maritime laws and the third one is about the animal and plant populations of the lands near the North Pole),
- personal, relative accounts of the events (like the fourth entry, which is an autobiography of a survivor and therefore describes the wreck through the character's own perspective) as opposed to more factual material.
What do you call the lines on a topographic map that indicate the elevation of the land forms?

Answer:
The correct answer is: a) it relies on testimony from people.
Explanation:
The Mercalli intensity scale, unlike the Richter scale, does not directly measure the energy of an earthquake. Rather, it takes into account the damage and effects that the earthquake caused. When there is little damage, it relies on the testimony of people who felt the earthquake, which may vary and is ultimately subjective to people's perception.
The Mercalli Intensity Scale ranges from "Not felt" to "Catastrophic" going through 12 scale intensities.
