Why is it impossible to predict earthquakes?
There are many signs we can lean on in regards to an upcomming event. The problem is that these signs are not failproof. We are aware of many of the dynamics and mechanichs leading to an earthquake, but we do not know yet what the final drop is. We try to make statistics, but statistics fail or is inaccurate at its best. We know that earthquake one place may set off a chainreaction of earthquakes in other places. There are simply too many variables in the puzzle in order to make accurate predictions. On the lighter side: Some scientists have actually made machines than can push forward an earthquake. The idea behind is to release tension in earths crust before it build up too much. Instead of having a lvl 7 or 8 earthquake, this machine can set it off much before, and we would maybe have only a couple of lvl 4 or 5 earthquakes instead. Governments however are quite reluctant to allow further use of this machine.
How can scientists prevent people from earthquakes?
At this point, scientists don't prevent earthquakes. But their predictions may help minimize an earthquake's damaging and destructive effects. Advance warning may allow people to make their properties more earthquake resistant and may let appropriate organizations have emergency preparedness measures in place.
What type of reasoning may allow you to predict what you may expect to observe?

Why were many scientists drawn to universities during the scientific revolution?
Universities would allow scientists to investigate their theories even if they contradicted Catholic teachings.
Does algae grow in the desert?
Yes. Scientists have found that desert dust does indeed allow algae to grow.
How do earthquakes allow scientists study earth's interior?
The seismic waves that the earthquakes make travel slowly and scientists can track them
Weather maps are idea models that allow scientists to predict weather patterns true or false?
true
What do scientists predict the banning of the use of chlorofluorocarbons will do?
Banning the use of chlorofluorocarbons has begun to allow the ozone layer to recover. this improvement is predicted to continue.

What is the future of Africa?
The future is difficult to predict accurately (but very easy to predict inaccurately) so allow me to predict that Africa is facing a difficult future.

Why the Richter Scale is useful?
The Richter magnitude scale assigns a single number to quantify the amount of seismic energy released by an earthquake. An earthquake that measures 6 on the Richter scale is 10 times more powerful than one that measures 5.
What do microarrays allow scientists to do?
With a micro array , scientists can examine how active thousands of genes are.
What is the purpose of a dog bone beam?
To reduce the near column beam section stiffness and have lateral flexibility with respect to horizontal seismic loading movements and column beam connections are not overstress. To have a point of designated failure. You are ensuring that if failure happens, it is in the beam and not at the connection. This is necessary to avoid severe building failure that would be impossible for engineers to predict. This way, we can build for where failure will happen and even though the building would be worthless (say after an earthquake), it ensures that it will still stand and allow people to escape.
What does a one-Angstrom microscope allow scientists see?
It allows scientists to see patterns in matter.
