D. The waves encounter entirely different mediums.
<h3>Why does the amplitude of a seismic wave decrease as the wave moves away from the epicenter?</h3>
At farther distances, the amplitude of the seismic waves decreases as the energy released by the earthquake spreads throughout a larger volume and different mediums of Earth.
So we can conclude that option D is the right answer.

Answer:
An inference is different from a prediction because a prediction is usually an educated guess (which is usually not correct) while an inference is a guess based on evidence that you have studied or read somewhere
Explanation:
Polar bears are animals that live in cold environments.
Their environment should be a place conducive for breeding and propagating
their species. If ice caps are melting and the length of the cold season is
declining because of the effects of climate change, polar bears will have less
time hunting for food.
Generally, the coldest season is the best hunting
time for polar bears. It is easier to catch seals and fish due to the thickness
of the ice and the rise of water in their environment. This time to hunt is
enough to restore the polar bears’ body fat and fitness in preparation for the
warm season where there is less ice and food.
<span>As the warm season lengthens, the condition of
the polar bears’ bodies decline resulting to effects that are serious for pregnant
polar bears who are nursing and cubs who need their mothers’ energies to
survive the harsh environment. </span>
The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:
- Adjusts the positions of the head, the neck, and the trunk
- Perform respiratory movements
- Stabilize or position parts of the appendicular skeleton
- All of the above
Answer:
All of the above
Explanation:
The axial skeleton is the group of bones which forms the centre of the skeletal system. The central portion of the skeletal system includes bones of the skull, bones associated with the skull, the thorax, and the vertebral column (spinal cord).
There are 80 axial skeletal bones out of which 22 bones are present in the skull, 7 attached to the skull, 25 in a thoracic cage and 26 in the vertebral column.
The axial skeleton help maintains the position of the appendicular skeleton, maintain the posture of the body by maintaining the posture of the neck, head and trunk and also help in the respiratory movements.
Thus, all of the above is correct.
1 c is the answer. <span>Energy is not created or destroyed; it can change form or can be transferred.
2d work is calculated as newton x </span>displacement so 60 x 4= 240 joules
