Which of the following does not determine the amount of destruction caused by seismic shaking? a. intensity of the shakingb. type of faultc. nature of the building materiald. duration of the shakinge. nature of the ground material

b. type of fault

Explanation:

When an earthquake occurs, there is the energy liberation form the region the earthquake emanated. This region is popularly known as focus and it emits series of seismic waves. the presence of these seismic waves beneath the earth's crust leads to different types of vibration. The type of fault present in the system does not influence the effects of seismic shaking.  

Option B is correct (Types of fault).

Explanation:

This is because, when an earthquake occurs, energy is released in the seismic waves travel from the place the earthquake starts. This place is known as the focus. Seismic waves that originate from the focus cause intense shaking at the Earth surface that can cause buildings and roads to collapse. The types of fault does not determine the amount of destruction caused by the shaking. Earthquakes only occurs faults.

the answer is "d"

(context) if you were to travel to the middle east and go into peoples homes there would be like 4 generations in there

(more context) i'm pretty sure in the middle east they take loyalty and family bonds very serious

(last bit of context) i'm also positive that extended families are most commonly found in urban areas
