Answer:

B) Epicenter.......

Explanation:

The place of origin of earthquake inside the earth is know as.....(Epicenter)......Because.....The point within the earth along the rupturing geological fault where an earthquake originates is called the focus, or hypocenter. The point on the earth's surface directly above the focus is called the epicenter. Earthquake waves begin to radiate out from the focus and subsequently form along the fault rupture.
