Seismic waves travel in all the directions and used to determine the magnitude of an earthquake. There are 3 types of seismic waves that move in different directions.
1. P wave: It is the fastest of all three waves that travel through the interior of the earth and are compressive waves.
2. S wave: Secondary waves generally follow the P waves and travel through the interior of the earth but are shearing waves.
3. Surface wave: This is the slowest of all three waves that moves close to the surface of the ground.
These waves affect the movement of other materials when they are passing through the interior or surface of the earth.
P waves can move through the solid rocks and even liquids. S waves do not travel through the liquids such as water and molten magma. Surface waves causes shaking of the ground and do not go deep inside the earth.
D) The AV valves are supported by chordae tendineae so that they do not blow back up into the atria during ventricular contraction.
Answer:
Enhancer sequence.
Explanation:
Enhancers may be defined as the transcription factors that are used to enhance or increase the activity of the gene. Enhancers bind with the transcription factors to regulate and increase its expression.
The mutation in the enhancers decrease the transcription of of the other gene. These sequences lies far away from the transcription site but still known to increase the rate of transcription. Hence, the mutation has been done in the enhancer sequences.
Thus, the correct answer is option (b).
Answer:
Sediment, Transport and Deposition
Explanation:
The sediment is often formed when weathering and erosion break down a rock into loose material in a source area.
