Scientists learn about the layers deep within the Earth's crust by studying how seismic waves travel through the Earth. If there is an earthquake somewhere, seismagraphs in many locations will record it.

Answer: the relative differences in arrival times of the S and P seismic waves at several recording stations tell scientists about the different speeds those waves were traveling at, which in turn gives information about the density of the material the layer is made of, and how thick the layer is in several directions.

Explanation:Earth's layers

For #1, the last choice is correct. A geocentric model means that the earth is the center of the universe while all other bodies orbit around it. A heliocentric model means that the sun is the center of the inverse while the other bodies orbit around it. The shared feature is that the other bodies in space move in circular orbits.

For #2, the first answer is correct. When the moon is between the earth and the sun, positions X and Z are being pulled by the moon’s gravitational force, creating high tides at these places. However, positions W and Y are experiencing low tides because no gravitational pull is making them high.
