The Primary waves will reach first, then The Secondary waves, then the Surface Waves. (you can figure this out by its names too) Since primary waves pull and compress and expand like an accordion, they will reach the seismograph station first (due to them heading straight). The Secondary waves reach second because they move back and forth in a zig-zag pattern, rather than a straight line- like the primary waves. Since surface waves  move the slowest, they make the most severe ground movement- also hence it coming last.

Answer: Situation specificity

Explanation:

As a person grows, he often understands the behaviors and forms of expression that he must adopt. It is understood that there are ways to behave according to the situation in which the person can be present.

It can be called situation specificity the way a person acts and express itself according to the context in which the person can meet. It is easy for adults the codes established at the time of expressing and behaving according to the place. For children, this is more difficult since their little reason does not allow them to identify at what time they should not cry or play. This is normal since they have not yet reached the stage of maturation that allows them to differentiate at what time they should do something or not, and also that their poor vocabulary makes them express their needs in another way.

In the case of Ari, it can be seen that he behaved as expected according to the context. When he was at the Dean’s office, Ari remained calm and polite. I knew the Dean’s office was not a place to be talking loudly or shouting. Then when he went to a soccer game, Ari started screaming and jumping, something that is expected when a person goes to watch a game of any sport. It is normal to shout, clap, jump and celebrate when you are watching a sport.

Not all people will be able to act and express in certain ways depending on the context and this would not necessarily be because they do not know the ways of behaving. Some mental or physical illnesses can influence a person's behavior, causing them to behave in a way that they do not expect.
