1) One seismogram represents the distance to the epicenter (indicated by one circle). This is determined by the arrival times of the P and S waves. When the seismograph is near to a quake, the S-waves arrive shortly after the P-waves.

2) A single or double recording station could only measure distance, not direction; a full circle is drawn around the station to allow for all possibilities.

3) Triangulation is a technique used by scientists to determine the location of an earthquake's epicenter. When seismic data is collected from at least three different locations, the epicenter may be established by where the data links. A network of seismographs positioned in various directions records every earthquake.

4) A seismograph is a device used to record seismic waves caused by an earthquake, explosion, or another Earth-shaking event.

5) In the aftermath of an earthquake, the P waves go ahead of the S waves. As a result, the longer the time difference between the arrival of the P and S waves, the greater the distance between a seismic recording station and the earthquake epicenter.

6) Surface waves frequently induce more ground motion than body waves and hence cause more harm.

<h3>What exactly is a seismograph?</h3>

Seismometers are measuring instruments that detect ground noises and vibrations caused by earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and explosions. Seismographs usually consist of a seismograph, a timing device, and a recording device.

Modern seismometers are capable of detecting ground movements as small as a few nanometres - a millionth of a millimeter. The magnitude of the earthquake is calculated using the measured amplitudes and its closeness to the hypocenter.

Why are genetic variation and selective breeding are advantages of sexual reproduction?
soldier1979 [14.2K]
The evolution of sexual reproduction is a great puzzle in modern evolutionary biology. Many groups of eukaryotic organisms, especially most animals and plants, reproduce sexually. The evolution of sex between two organisms of the same species contains two related but different themes: its origin and its maintenance. However, since hypotheses for the origin of sex are difficult to test experimentally, most of the current work has focused on the maintenance of sexual reproduction. Biologists, including W. D. Hamilton, Alexei Kondrashov, and George C. Williams, have proposed various explanations for how sexual reproduction is maintained in a large set of different living things.

2. What is an example of something studied on the molecular level (as opposed to the atomic level)?
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Something studied on the molecular level is the water.

Explanation:

Water is a molecule formed by two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom, whose chemical representation is H₂O. It is a molecule whose polarity makes it a universal solvent of other polar molecules.

The molecular level corresponds to the level of organization where two or more atoms unite to form molecules or substances, united by chemical bonds. H₂O is studied at this level due to its chemical structure.

With respect to other options:

  • <u><em>Hydrogen and oxygen</em></u><em> are atoms, and correspond to the level of atomic organization.</em>
  • <u><em>Protons</em></u><em> are particles that are part of an atom, and correspond to the subatomic level.</em>
