Where would an earthquake's epicenter be in this diagram? a. on earth's surface, directly above where the fault slippage begins b. at the point on earth's surface where the fault line meets the surface c. underground, at a point somewhere along the fault line d. deep underground, below the point where the fault line meets the surface
