The answer is D


There are two primary scales used to measure earthquakes: the Richter scale and the Mercalli scale. The Richter scale is most common in the United States, while worldwide, scientists rely on the Mercalli scale. The moment magnitude scale is another earthquake measurement scale used by some seismologists.
