    An earthquake is the most dangerous natural disaster because it is caused by the intense shaking of tectonic plates beneath the Earth's surface, which can cause serious and irreparable damage to buildings and infrastructure. Earthquakes are unpredictable seismic events that result from the movement of tectonic plates or meteorite impacts, and can induce soil liquefaction where buildings and structures collapse amid sinking debris if the ground shakes violently enough.

    For me, an earthquake is the most dangerous since it is an intense shaking of the Earth's

    surface. It is formed by movements of the different "tectonic" plates that form the
    earth's crust, causing serious and irreparable damage.
    Earthquakes are also caused by meteorite shock.
    It is a seismic hazard, if it shakes the ground and causes disasters.
    If soil liquefaction occurs, buildings collapse or sink and remain in debris.
    Liquefaction occurs if sand or earth is mixed with groundwater during shaking.
    It is scientifically impossible to predict this natural disaster.
    If an earthquake occurs, take cover and stay calm.
