I believe that the seismograph shows the difference of time between the arrival of the two types of waves and this can be read right off the seismograph recording. Also, to get the distance of the earthquake from the recording spot one can derive the average velocity from Vp x Vs/Vp-Vs=km/sec x difference in time of arrival of the two equals the distance to the epicentre, This is where Vp = velocity of P wave and Vs = velocity of S waves.

Explain why the amount of rainfall a region receives is a better determination of whether it is a desert than temperature.
Gnoma [55]
<span>As there are many kinds of deserts, some hot, some cold even arid deserts are the classic hot deserts, but there are also cold and coastal deserts where temperatures do not get so high. The element common to all of these types of deserts, however, is their lack of rainfall. In that sense the rainfall is a characteristic that determines if it's a desert.</span>

inn [45]

All macromolecules have carbon atom and the hydrogen atom.

<h3>What are macromolecules?</h3>

The term macromolecules refers to the molecules that are composed of smaller units. These smaller units are called monomers. The macromolecules that we are concerned with here are the macromolecules that could be found in the human body.

The biological macromolecules are often very large as we can see. This is because the number of units that are joined to form the macromolecules are usually very much. There are thousands of monomer molecules that are joined together to give proteins, lipids, carbohydrates and the nucleic acid macromolecules.

All the macromolecules have the carbon atom and the hydrogen atom. These are found across all the macromolecules. The carbohydrates are reducing sugars thus they contain the carbonyl bond. The carbonyl group is absent in lipids, nucleic acids, proteins, and amino hence they do not undergo carbonyl reduction reactions.
