Answer:

The correct answer is : 'D'

• Fault move in a horizontal direction or sideways.

Answer:

D. Fault movement occurs in land

Most tsunami are caused by large earthquakes on the sea floor when slabs of rock move past each other suddenly, causing the overlying water to move. The resulting waves move away from the source of the earthquake event.
