The National Seismic Hazard Map classified one location as having the “highest hazard” and another location as having the “lowest hazard.” Based on this classification, which conclusion can you draw between the "highest hazard" and "lowest hazard" locations?(1 point)
Responses There will definitely be an earthquake in the "highest hazard" location. There will definitely be an earthquake in the "highest hazard" location. "Highest hazard" locations are better prepared for an earthquake than the "lowest hazard" locations. "Highest hazard" locations are better prepared for an earthquake than the "lowest hazard" locations. There will never be an earthquake in the "lowest hazard" location in the future. There will never be an earthquake in the "lowest hazard" location in the future. There is more likely to be an earthquake in a "highest hazard" location than in a "lowest hazard" location.
There is more likely to be an earthquake in a "highest hazard" location than in a "lowest hazard" location.
The conclusion that can be drawn from the classification of a location as having the "highest hazard" and another location as having the "lowest hazard" is that there is a greater likelihood of an earthquake occurring in the "highest hazard" location compared to the "lowest hazard" location.
The conclusion that can be drawn between the "highest hazard" and "lowest hazard" locations is that there is a higher likelihood of an earthquake occurring in a "highest hazard" location compared to a "lowest hazard" location. This conclusion can be made based on the classification given by the National Seismic Hazard Map. However, it does not imply that there will definitely be an earthquake in the "highest hazard" location or that there will never be an earthquake in the "lowest hazard" location. It also does not imply that "highest hazard" locations are better prepared for earthquakes than "lowest hazard" locations.
