Question

Match List-I with List-II:

List-I (Geomorphic Hazards)	List-II (Areas of Occurrence)
a. Faulting	i. Krakatoa Earthquake (1883)
b. Vulcanicity	ii. Greece Earthquake (1931)
c. Hydrostatic pressure	iii. Gujarat Earthquake (2001)
d. Plate movement	iv. California Earthquake (1906)

Choose the correct option from those given below:
1. a - ii, b - iii, c - iv, d - i
2. a - i, b - ii, c - iii, d - iv
3. a - iii, b - iv, c - i, d - ii
4. a - iv, b - i, c - ii, d - iii

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 4 : a - iv, b - i, c - ii, d - iii

List-I (Geomorphic Hazards)	List-II (Areas of Occurrence)
a. Faulting	iv. California Earthquake (1906)
b. Vulcanicity	i. Krakatoa Earthquake (1883)
c. Hydrostatic pressure	ii. Greece Earthquake (1931)
d. Plate movement	iii. Gujarat Earthquake (2001)

Correct matching is a - iv, b - i, c - ii, d - iii

Earthquake	Important information
Krakatoa Earthquake (1883)	Eruptions at Krakatoa started one year before The violence of the ongoing eruptions caused tides in the vicinity to be unusually high, and ships at anchor had to be moored with chains
Greece Earthquake (1931)	The main fault was buried under the earth's surface heaved up the land, setting off two smaller faults that broke on the surface. The seafloor just off Hawke's Bay was lifted more than 2.7 meters, and the Ahuriri Lagoon and tidal flats were drained.
Gujarat Earthquake (2001)	Gujarat lies 300–400 km from the plate boundary between the Indian Plate and the Eurasian Plate, The current tectonics are still governed by the effects of the continuing continental collision along this boundary.
California Earthquake (1906)	Severe deformations in the earth's crust took place both before and after the earthquake's impact. Accumulated strain on the faults in the system was relieved during the earthquake, which is the supposed cause of the damage along the 450-kilometer-long (280 mi) segment of the San Andreas plate boundary.
