Answer:

The primary effects of an earthquake are mainly ground shaking, ground rupture, tsunamis and landslides. Most probably, fire is the most important secondary effect of an earthquake.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When an earthquake takes place, one should stay calm and reassure others. During the earthquake, the most secure place is an open space; away from buildings and trees. If one is indoors and unable to go out, hide under a table, desk, chair, bed, or, doorways, against inside walls and staircase. During the occurrence, one should stay away from glass materials, mostly glass doors, windows, or outside doors.
