Chosen Answer:
D. Earthquakes produce seismic waves that can carry energy to distant places.
seismic waves propagate through the rigid crust of the earth so that the vibrations that occur in the epicenter could be felt at a distance even if the strength of a strong earthquake that could topple buildings within tens of kilometers from the epicenter.
