Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

To match the disasters with their related terms, analyze the specific characteristics of each event. Tropical Cyclones are characterized by strong winds and low pressure that cause Storm surges (A-III). Landslides involve the downward movement of soil and rock, which relates to mass wasting processes like Solifluction (B-I). Drought leads to water scarcity and crop failure, often resulting in Famine (C-IV). Earthquakes release seismic energy that propagates as Shock waves (D-II). Thus, the correct matching is A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II.
