| Disaster | Characteristic |
|---|---|
| (a) Volcanic eruption | 1. Violent wind |
| (b) Cyclone | 2. Submarine earthquake/landslides |
| (c) Tsunami | 3. Desertification |
| (d) Drought | 4. Magma |
Codes (a), (b), (c), (d):
Answer: A
The disasters match as volcanic eruption with magma (4), cyclone with violent wind (1), tsunami with submarine earthquake or landslides (2) and drought with desertification (3), the code 4 1 2 3.
The other codes mismatch at least two of these pairs.
Magma is the molten rock that erupts from a volcano. A cyclone is a system of violent winds, a tsunami is a sea wave caused by a submarine earthquake or landslide, and drought is a long dry spell that leads to desertification. These definitions fix the code 4 1 2 3.
