Explanation:

(4) Crust is the correct answer

An earthquake is the result of a sudden release of stored energy in the Earth's crust that creates seismic waves. ... An earthquake is caused by tectonic plates getting stuck and putting a strain on the ground. The strain becomes so great that rocks give way by breaking and sliding along fault planes.

Answer 2

Answer: The correct answer is Earth's Crust. Option (4).

Explanation:

• An earthquake, also known as a quake, tremor, or temblor, is the shaking of the surface of the Earth that occurs as a consequence of a rapid release of energy in the Earth's lithosphere that generates seismic waves.
• Other names for an earthquake include quake, tremor, and temblor.
• There is a wide variety of possible quake intensities, from those that are so mild that they cannot be felt to those that are strong enough to launch items and people into the air and wreak havoc throughout an entire city.
• An area's seismicity, also known as its seismic activity, may be defined as the number of earthquakes of varying magnitudes, types, and frequencies that occur there during a certain period of time.
• A seismic rumbling that is not an earthquake is often referred to as a tremor.
