It is thanks to Amerigo Vespucci and Christopher Columbus that the land was discovered, and so spurred other countires such as Spain and Portugal into what now is called the Age of Discovery. Not be outdone by the other, both of these countries wished to seize control of the raw materials and land available for their own. What they did not expect was the wide trade off of contact with the Native Americans. This includes plants, animals, diseases, and even slaves.

Mosaics, frescos, and sculptures are all
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

artistic techniques.

Explanation:

  • Mosaics <u>are the images and pieces of art made out of small fragments of stone, glass, or ceramics. </u>They are glued to the background or held together by plaster. They often decorate walls or floors and have been used since ancient times, both in secular and religious art.

  • Frescos <u>are wall paintings done in fresh plaster in order to make them one with the wall background</u>. They have also been done since ancient times, and are crucial to the art of Renaissance and Orthodox Christan churches.

  • The sculpture <u>is the type of three-dimensional art of craving and modeling the material into the wished piece of art.</u> It is done in various techniques and materials. It can be attached to the wall (relief) or completely free and unattached (free-standing).

<u>Judging by all the descriptions of these three things, we can conclude that they are all different artistic techniques.</u>

name two types of earthquake waves and explain how scientists use them to study Earth's interior???? PLZ HELP
sergey [27]
Maybe this willl hellp"
Seismic waves are sent through the earth during earthquakes, and those energy waves are what cause the ground to shake as they travel through it.Seismic waves travel at different speeds when they pass through different types of material, so by studying seismograms, scientists can learn a lot about Earth's internal structure.Body waves are seismic waves that travel through Earth's interior, or its 'body.' Surface waves are seismic waves that travel through Earth's surface.Surface waves are important, but they don't provide much information about what happens below the surface. For this, we need to study body waves so that we can see what Earth's 'body' is like.

There are two types of body waves, called P waves and S waves. P stands for primary waves because these waves travel the fastest and are detected first. S stands for secondary waves because these are slower than P waves, arriving second on the seismogram.
