What is meant by a secondary effect?

A result that follows later as a consequence of the primary damage, such as disease spreading once the water supply has been contaminated.

Why are fires often listed as a secondary effect of an earthquake?

Because the shaking first fractures gas pipes and electricity cables, and the fires those broken services start then spread through the wreckage.

Give one secondary effect of a volcanic eruption on farming.

Ash falling on the fields smothers crops and kills livestock, so harvests fail and food becomes scarce in the months afterwards.

What counts as an immediate response, and give two examples.

Action taken in the hours and days straight after the event, such as searching the rubble for survivors and setting up emergency shelter, food and water.

Questions from this subtopic

Each one with the model answer underneath.

1
What is meant by a primary effect of an earthquake or eruption?
Model answer
A result caused directly by the event itself, such as people killed by falling masonry as the ground shakes.
2
Give two primary effects of a strong earthquake.
Model answer
Buildings, bridges and roads collapse, and people are killed or injured by the collapsing structures.
3
What is meant by a secondary effect?
Model answer
A result that follows later as a consequence of the primary damage, such as disease spreading once the water supply has been contaminated.
4
Why are fires often listed as a secondary effect of an earthquake?
Model answer
Because the shaking first fractures gas pipes and electricity cables, and the fires those broken services start then spread through the wreckage.
5
Give one secondary effect of a volcanic eruption on farming.
