Question

Dormant volcanoes are more dangerous than active volcanoes. This is because ______.

विकल्प

• Dormant volcanoes are more violent than active volcanoes

• Dormant volcanoes cause more destruction

• There is high level of uncertainty associated with dormant volcanoes

• Dormant volcanoes are located in inhabited areas.

Answer 1

Dormant volcanoes are more dangerous than active volcanoes. This is because there is high level of uncertainty associated with dormant volcanoes.

Explanation:

Dormant volcanoes are more dangerous because they have long periods of inactivity, making it unpredictable when they will erupt again. This uncertainty adds to the risk, unlike active volcanoes which erupt more regularly and are closely monitored. Therefore, people may underestimate the risk near dormant volcanoes, leading to greater danger when they suddenly erupt.
