Question

Please help me. This now actually my 6th time asking this question

Direction. The following are different situational statements. Identify 3
elements that are vulnerable in each situation.
1. You are a secondary student. You are stranded in your school building. They
have blocked off the entrances and exits because the grounds are flooded. You
have been trying to call your family and trying to get news on your house, but
the signal's down. You have only gotten your books, notebooks, and laboratory
materials in your bag and locker. What elements of vulnerability are present in
the situation?
2. You and your family is living in an apartment. You knew that the location you
are residing is a flood risk area. The radio reports anticipated flooding, and you
heard the rain pouring, so you prepared water bottle, some clothes, canned
goods, and cash. You placed all your electronic appliances on top of the cabinets
and tables and encased them in plastic covers. You're ready to go out, but you
don't know where the evacuation center is.
3. You and your family are very creative and artistic. You have got two younger
sisters and one younger brother. Your mother owns several vases and portraits
she has made herself. It occurs that there is a 2-minute earthquake of magnitude
6 and intensity 4 in your hometown. Your family panicked and put all the vases
and portraits down the floor to prevent this from braking.
