## Step 1The problem is asking for the cause of the meltdown of the three nuclear reactors in Fukushima, Japan. The options provided are a tornado, a tsunami, warfare, and human error.## Step 2The correct answer is B, a tsunami. The meltdown occurred in March 2011 after a massive 9.0-magnitude earthquake off the coast of Japan triggered a tsunami. The tsunami caused a loss of power and cooling to the reactors, leading to the meltdown.## Step 3The other options, a tornado, warfare, and human error, are not the direct causes of the meltdown. While human error played a role in the disaster, the immediate cause was the natural disaster of the tsunami.
