Answer 2

A hazard becomes disaster in the following way -

• From the definition of the hazard we came to know that the hazard is a threatening situation for the living or non-living beings of our environment.

• And,from the definition of the disaster we came to know that the disaster is complete disturbance in the normal lifestyle of the community of a large region.
