Write down the protective measures against Earthquakes if you are at home as well as outdoors.

Answer:
During the earthquake: Drop, cover and hold
Avoid danger spots near windows, hanging objects, mirrors, or tall furniture. Hold the position until the ground stops shaking and it is safe to move. If you are outside, get into the open, away from buildings, power lines and trees.
IF YOU ARE INSIDE A HOME OR BUILDING DURING AN EARTHQUAKE
First things first: if you feel an earthquake, resist the urge to run outside. Here in California, modern buildings are designed to withstand large earthquakes, but windows can shatter onto the street below, and exterior masonry may fall off as well. This means there’s a greater chance you’ll be hurt if you’re near a building during an earthquake than if you’re in it. Stay put.
WHAT TO DO DURING AN EARTHQUAKE IF YOU ARE OUTSIDE
What if you’re outside? In that case, get away from trees and power lines (both of which may topple), as well as buildings (which likely won’t fall but may drop debris on you). If you can shelter in place, do so.
IF YOU ARE IN YOUR CAR OR DRIVING AND AN EARTHQUAKE STRIKES
Follow the advice from our ShakeOut friends:
Pull over to the side of the road, stop, and set the parking brake.
Avoid overpasses, bridges, power lines, signs and other hazards.
Stay inside the vehicle until the shaking stops, then proceed carefully by avoiding fallen debris, cracked or shifted payment, and emergency vehicles.
If a power line falls on the car, stay inside until a trained person removes the wire.
Learn what to do in other unique and specific earthquake situations, so you can be safe wherever you are when the earth shakes.
PROTECT YOURSELF DURING EARTHQUAKE SHAKING: DROP, COVER, AND HOLD ON
The best way to shelter in place is to drop, cover, and hold on. When the quake starts, drop to the floor as soon as you can (it’s easy to get thrown off your feet and injured if you try to run while the building is moving). If a table or other form of cover is nearby, then move quickly (crawling works) to get underneath it. Finally, crouch in position, with one arm over your neck and head, and another holding on to the table leg.
