Answer:

A. Earthquakes

Step-by-step explanation:

The Coriolis Effect or Coriolis Force is a uniformly rotating reference system in which moving bodies, when viewed by an observer in the same frame, appear to be subjected to a force perpendicular to the direction of their movement. This force was discovered by French engineer Gustave-Gaspar Coriolis.
