The answer to this question is True
I understand this question to mean "local diversity of human culture" (and not, for example, local biological diversity).
Local diversity can mean for example different food - different areas have their own food specialties).
It can also mean the customs and religions - for example how people eat (fork, chopstics, hands, etc).
Another example is the clothing, for example in India many women wear Saris, while in Europe women wear skirts or trousers.
Answer:
The elastic-rebound theory explain the occurrence of earthquakes in b. When bending rocks fail, stress energy is released in the form of earthquakes.
Explanation:
The energy released as earthquakes result from when bending rocks fail and there is a rupture from the fault line. Because earthquakes are sudden movements from ruptures, the answer a is not correct. c. is also not correct because it is not the surrounding crust that vibrates but the crust is divided between two moving plates. d is also not correct because the opposite rocks are under sheer stress and the energy released is a stress energy, not a tension energy.
From what it looks like A,B,D should be the answers.
d isn't right because South korea is a Republic nation
