The National Seismic Hazard Map classified one location as having the “highest hazard” and another location as having the “lowest hazard.” Based on this classification, which conclusion can you draw between the "highest hazard" and "lowest hazard" locations?(1 point)

There will definitely be an earthquake in the "highest hazard" location.
There will definitely be an earthquake in the "highest hazard" location.

There is more likely to be an earthquake in a "highest hazard" location than in a "lowest hazard" location.
There is more likely to be an earthquake in a "highest hazard" location than in a "lowest hazard" location.

There will never be an earthquake in the "lowest hazard" location in the future.
There will never be an earthquake in the "lowest hazard" location in the future.

"Highest hazard" locations are better prepared for an earthquake than the "lowest hazard" locations.

GPT-4o mini · Answer

The correct conclusion you can draw from the classification is:

There is more likely to be an earthquake in a "highest hazard" location than in a "lowest hazard" location.

This statement reflects the probability of seismic activity based on the hazard classification, indicating that areas designated as having the highest hazard are statistically more prone to experience earthquakes compared to those with the lowest hazard.
