The correct response is:

earthquakes: landslides tsunamis: move blocks of land up or down

This correctly identifies that earthquakes can trigger landslides due to the ground shaking and that tsunamis can cause significant geological displacement, moving land up or down.

are you sure

Yes, I'm sure. The correct identification of the ways earthquakes and tsunamis cause destruction is:

  • Earthquakes can cause landslides due to the shaking of the ground.
  • Tsunamis can move blocks of land up or down, especially in coastal areas where the force of the waves can dramatically alter the landscape.

If the options provided correctly reflect these causes, then that set (earthquakes: landslides tsunamis: move blocks of land up or down) is accurate. If you have further context or different wording for the options, please share, and I can provide a more detailed explanation!
