Answer 2

This is the last question.

Answer 3

I thought it was maybe B or D.

Answer 4

I'm not sure. It could be A, simply because people were fleeing from Missouri. There were 3 shocks, and one HUGE aftershock, which is what scared everyone away.. So, I'm not completely sure. I'm pretty sure it's not C or D. The shake actually caused more water to come up from cracks in the Earth

Answer 5

Ahh, okay. Between A and B, I think A might make more sense. Thanks!!!!
