Answers & Comments
Answer: B.
Explanation: According to what I've searched, intensity is a number (written as a Roman numeral) describing the severity of an earthquake in terms of its effects on the earth's surface and on humans and their structures.
By using the aforementioned definition as a ground and by using the process of elimination, choices A and D are already considered incorrect. The only choices left are B and C. Since it was mentioned in the definition given (severity of an earthquake in terms of its EFFECTS), the answer is B.
