Because it can analyze of what we are made of and who were our ancestors by studying our DNA
A magnitude-5.0 earthquake releases about <u>32</u> times more energy than a 4.0 magnitude earthquake.
Explanation:
The characteristics of an earthquake are mostly measured through its magnitude and intensity.
A earthquake will generate seismic energy waves which will spread outwardly on the earth's surface in all directions.
The magnitude of an earthquake is the quantitative measure of the amount of energy released during a seismic activity or an earthquake.
The intensity of an earthquake is a descriptive measure of the severity or the strength of the earthquake based on the impact it has done on the earth’s surface, human population, and other man-made structures on the earth and the potential danger.
The magnitude measured using a seismograph is expressed as a whole number or a decimal fraction like 5.7, 4.5 etc. The severity of the magnitude is compared against the standard Richter’s Scale.
The intensity is denoted in Roman numerals and compared against various scales like Mercalli or Rossi-Forel Scales.
Based on the logarithmic application of the scale, each whole number increase in an earthquake’s magnitude depicts a ten-fold increase in severity of the amplitude of the earthquake as measured on the seismogram and denotes about 32 times increased energy release

Hydroelectric energy would not be a good alternative energy source for a small island country like Great Britain. The UK has a large population of about 60-65 million people and a large industrial, so electricity consumption would be a problem. A lot of hydroelectric dams would be needed to serve the large population, and UK does not have a lot of major rivers that are suitable for dams
Answer:
Land subsidence happens when the increased demand for water is countered with sound agricultural practices.
