A Correct answer
Explanation

The term epicentre refers to the point on the Earth's surface directly above the focus of an earthquake, where seismic waves are first felt. It is specifically associated with earthquakes and seismic activity. Tornadoes and cyclones have different terminology (e.g., touchdown point, landfall), while Earth's interior refers to the focus, not epicentre.
