Solution

Нуроcentre is the other name of seismic focus.

Explanation:

Hypocentre (also called Nurocentre) is the point inside the earth’s crust where the earthquake originates. It is also known as the seismic focus. The epicentre is the point on the surface above the hypocentre where shaking is felt most strongly. Hence, Nurocentre is another name for the seismic focus, not epicentre or other options.
