Chandubi Lake is a natural lake located in Rabha Hasong Autonomous Council, Kamrup District, Assam. The lake is located at the foot of Garo Hills surrounded by Assam and Meghalaya. This lake was formed on 12 June 1897 in the evening by an earthquake that hit Assam. During that period the forest went down and became the lake.

Answer: (A) Seismic
Answer: (A) Seismic
Answer: (A) Seismic
The Earth's crust is not a single, unbroken shell; it's divided into large pieces called tectonic plates. The boundaries where these plates meet are subject to immense stress due to their constant movement. These areas, characterized by frequent movement and deformation, are known as seismic zones or fault zones. The accumulated stress in these weak zones is eventually released in the form of earthquakes. While the asthenosphere is a weak, semi-fluid layer beneath the lithosphere (which includes the crust), the term "seismic zone" specifically refers to the regions within the crust that are prone to seismic activity.

Answer: (A) 1950
According to available information, significant bank erosion in Majuli, Assam, began after the major earthquake of 1950. This earthquake caused substantial changes in the Brahmaputra riverbed, leading to increased erosion of the island's banks.

A geyser is a hot spring that erupts periodically, shooting a column of hot water and steam into the air. This phenomenon occurs when underground water is heated by magma and builds up pressure until it forces its way to the surface.
