Answer:
1. True
Step-by-step explanation:
A seismic gap is an active fault known for making significant earthquakes and states that after a long period of time the displacement of any segments along the fault can lead to earthquakes.
Any large and long standing gaps are thus considered to be under future earthquakes. Example of the san Andreas faults that have recorded seismic activity.
