<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is the motion of the medium is parallel to a longitudinal wave and perpendicular to a transverse wave.

<u>Explanation:</u>

There are two main types of waves:

1. Transverse Waves: These waves are the waves where the particles in a medium travel perpendicular to the direction of the wave. These waves do not require a medium to travel and can travel in vacuum also. For Example: Light waves.

2. Longitudinal waves: These waves are the waves where the particles of the medium travel parallel to the direction of the wave and these waves require a medium to travel and hence, cannot travel in vacuum. For Example: Sound waves.

From the given options, the correct answer is  the motion of the medium is parallel to a longitudinal wave and perpendicular to a transverse wave.

The earth's tectonic plates are directly propelled by the convection in the __________.
frozen [14]

The missing word here is <u>Asthenosphere.</u><u> </u>

The convection in the asthenosphere directly propels the tectonic plates of the earth.


Did you know that the asthenosphere is thought to remain malleable because of heat from deep within the Earth? It is thought to be lubricating the earth's tectonic plates' undersides and enabling movement.


The older, denser portions of the lithosphere that are dragged downward in subduction zones are stored in the asthenosphere, according to the theory of plate tectonics.

The lithosphere above is stressed by convection currents, and the cracking that frequently results manifests as earthquakes.

Magma is forced upward through volcanic vents and spreading centers by convection currents produced within the asthenosphere, which also results in the formation of new crust.

As Typhon approached, Bacchus/Pan threw himself into the Nile but, in a panic, solely succeeded in altering part of his body, ending up with a goat's physique and the tail of a fish. Meanwhile, Zeus had been dismembered via Typhon, however was saved when Bacchus/Pan let out an ear-splitting yell, distracting the monster lengthy ample for an agile Hermes to gather the supreme god's limbs and cautiously fix him.
