Earthquake proof buildings are more expensive to build. Some people do not have the extra money.
No, hurricanes are not rare in Florida. Florida is prone to hurricanes due to its geographical location and warm tropical waters. The state has a long history of experiencing hurricanes, with some areas being more vulnerable than others.
Without more specific information, it is not possible to determine the exact location of a 0.1 earthquake. Earthquakes of this magnitude are very minor and generally not felt by humans. They can occur in various parts of the world, including areas prone to seismic activity.
There isn't a certain blood type prone to vomiting. Certain mental types? Sure.
Earthquakes are caused by the shifting of the Earth's plates usually at transform boundaries. California is a major earthquake area in NA because of the San Andreas fault line.
the reason some parts of the earth are more prone to having earthquakes is because of the fault line the cities are built on.
it means areas which are more prone or inclined to droughts
Prone
Buildings which are constructed with earth based materials or using stones and bricks are highly prone to floods
Yes. Places which are subject to long, hot, dry spells are more bushfire prone, particularly when there is an absence of humidity to balance the climate. Bushfires also need fuel, so areas where there is plenty of fuel by way of dry vegetation tend to be more prone. This is why southern Australia has the highest rate of bushfires.
There are certain areas more prone to tornadoes and hurricanes. However, tornado and hurricanes happen all over the world, but many to not get much attention
The most drought-prone areas are the areas inland from the coast. Drought hits all areas of Australia (including the coast) but drought is more prevalent in inland Queensland, NSW, Victoria, Northern Territory and throughout South Australia and Western Australia. Even Tasmania can be subject to drought.
Earthquakes occur around the areas where volcanoes are so if you look at a map of a volcanoes around the world, you'll be able to see. Of course there's some variation as to the location of earthquakes to that of a volcano but to decide one point, it would have to be the ring of fire.
According to DiamondFacts.org: "Conflict diamonds are diamonds illegally traded to fund conflict in war-torn areas, particularly in central and western Africa." You can read more, below.
Yes, because of their life style they are quite prone to rabies and in some areas are a prime vector for the disease.
Yes. Many people in tornado-prone regions have storm cellars or, in more recent years, an above-ground storm shelter. Though not all do.
Conflict diamonds are diamonds generally found on the ground or rivers. The problem is that in areas of rebellion or high crime, the bad guys used the money from selling these raw stones to finance their crimes or rebellions. There are estimates indicating that conflict or blood diamonds were never more than 5% of the diamonds in the world. Now they are less than 1%. Why? The Kimberly Process.
