Explanation / Answer

1) c) lahar

A lahar is another name of volcanic mud flow    which consists of a slurry of pyroclastic material, debris of rocks and water.

2) c) 10

10 to 20% of the Earth's land surface has soluble carbonate rocks at or near the surface.

3) c) there is no movement along joints

Only at faults there will be movement but at joints there will be no movement.

4)c) water, carbon dioxide and oxygen

The primary agents of chemical weathering are water, oxygen, and acids(for carbon dioxide it is carbonic acid)

5) d) dip-slip

Dip-slip faults are inclined faults where there will be vertical movement up or down.

6) a) a subjective description of the damage caused by an earthquake ,used to describe its intensity

Note: On a Mercalli scale there will be 12 divisions ranging from I (low intensity) to XII (total destruction).
