Answer:

Seismic waves,    Outer,    Mantle

Explanation:

P-waves vibrate longitudinally to the direction of propagation while S-waves vibrate vertically to direction of propagation. This is why S-waves are called shear waves while P-waves are compressional waves. S-waves are the main cause of destruction in an earthquake and are slower than P-waves.

The wave movement of P-waves allows them to pass through liquids and gases while S-waves cannot. Due to this differential phenomenon of these waves, the reflection of P –waves and S-waves after an earthquake – and as their vibrations are picked up by seismographs around the earth - enabled scientists to determine the properties of the  layers of the earth’’s interior.

Geologists can use Seismic waves to learn about Earth’s interior. P waves travel faster than S waves. S waves travel through solids only, which tells geologists that the Earth's core is liquid. Geologists call the outer, solid area of Earth the crust; the next layer is the Mantle. Finally, at the very center, is the core.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Researchers can comprehend Earth's inside by contemplating seismic waves. These are floods of vitality that moves through Earth and they move correspondingly to different sorts of waves, similar to sound waves, light waves, and water waves.

The earth is made up of three layers namely Crust (the outer layer) is solid, mantle (the middle layer) which is liquid and core (inner layer) which is very hot. Thus the correct answer for the blanks given in the passage is: Seismic waves, Earth and Mantle.

Large layers of cross-bedded sand can be indicative of a __________ environment.
k0ka [10]
Layers of cross-bedded sand can be indicative of a DESERT environment wind is responsible for the formation of these sedimentary structures. Sand dunes preserved in rocks can be quite large. These structures form as a result of the migration of dunes due to the action of the wind. Dunes are not often preserved but a few can be observed in thick sandstone units.

Which of the statement(s) is (are) not right __________. a. mRNA: contains protein-building instruction b. tRNA: deliver free am
Alina [70]

Hi there!

We can go through the overall function of all three of these:

mRNA: transcribed from the DNA, has the protein's composition written in it, and brings that to a ribosome where the protein will be made

tRNA: looks at the codons (set of 3 nucleotides) on the mRNA and brings amino acids which match up to that codon

rRNA: significant part of the composition of ribosomes

Now, looking at these, and back to the answer choices, we can already see that a, b, and c are correct. d, on the other hand, is incorrect.

Hope this helps! Feel free to let me know if you have any questions about this specific problem.
