Answer : The inner core and the inhomogeneous mantle.

Explanation : The inner core and the inhomogeneous mantle present in the Earth's interior, are the parts that causes the diffraction of P waves made by earthquakes. The name P-wave may have abbreviated form for either pressure wave (as it consists of compressions and rarefactions) or the primary wave (because of high velocity and first wave to be recorded by a seismograph).

The Core and an inhomogeneous Mantle cause diffraction of P-waves. P-waves are a type of elastic seismic wave that travel through a continuum and are the first waves from an earthquake to arrive at a seismograph.

Naturally occurring neon exists as three isotopes. 90.51% is ne-20 with a mass of 19.99 amu, 0.27% is ne-21 with a mass of 20.99

gregori [183]

The atomic mass of an element is the average relative mass of its atoms as compared with an atom of carbon-12 whose mass is taken as 12. In terms of percentages of different isotopes, the average atomic mass can be determined as follows: $A_{average}$ = ∑( $p_{i}$ X $A_{i}$ )/100. Where, $p_{i}$ is the percentage abundance of isotope with atomic number $A_{i}$ .

So, average atomic mass of neon = $\frac{(90.51 X 19.99) + (0.27 X 20.99) + (9.22 X 21.99)}{100}$ = 20.177 amu.
