Answer:

The correct answer to fill in the blank is echoic.

Explanation:

Echoic memory is a type of sensory memory that consists of storing an auditory stimulus (in the primary auditory cortex of the brain) for a few seconds in order to process it and understand it. This is what differentiates it from iconic memory (a type of visual memory), that doesn't last as long as the echoic one, for the visual stimulus can be repeated by observing the image again (which can't happen when hearing something, unless the same sound is repeated by the one that produces it).

In case of S waves, they are slow because the movement of medium is perpendicular to the direction of propagation of waves’ waves travel 60 times faster than S waves. The variation in speed of travel is because the earth reacts differently to both the waves.

Licemer1 [7]

Cory is reluctant to leave her home and attend college despite just being finished with her teenage years. Usually, the people of this age are explorative and are trying to find their identity in the world separately, but Cory seems to stay isolated even from Mike, which indicates that she might be going through the stage of stress. Stress makes a person to avoid any kind of interaction with other people and inhibits the urge to explore the life outside one's comfort zone. So, Cory is going through the stress stage.
