Explanation:
Liquefaction is another type of damage caused by earthquakes. ... During an earthquake, the ground shaking loosens moist soils in the area, which separates the particles, and the ground begins to act like a fluid. Liquefaction is very dangerous because the flowing ground can swallow up entire buildings and roads.
