Answer:

Option (3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Earthquake refers to the sudden shaking of the ground due to the release of energy below the surface of the earth. It occurs in the areas that are adjacent to the plate margins.

During a high magnitude earthquake, it has the potential to create massive damages to an area. This leads to the breakdown of buildings and houses of various designs and structures. The intensity and vibration also increases or decreases with the response to the wave propagation beneath the earth's surface.

But the earthquake has no relation with the weather, because the earthquake is a phenomenon that takes place in the interior of the earth, and the weather phenomenon takes place in the atmosphere.

So, the weather pattern occurring on the day of an earthquake does not affect the amount of destruction that is caused by the vibration of an earthquake.

Thus, the correct answer is option (3).
