the answer is B which is a crack in the topmost section of a glacier. I hope you got this right
Question-
Which seismic waves are felt first at a seismic station
Answer-
Seismic waves are the waves of energy caused by the sudden breaking of rock within the earth or an explosion. They are the energy that travels through the earth and is recorded on seismographs.
There are several different kinds of seismic waves, and they all move in different ways. The two main types of waves are body waves and surface waves. Body waves can travel through the earth's inner layers, but surface waves can only move along the surface of the planet like ripples on water. Earthquakes radiate seismic energy as both body and surface waves.
BODY WAVES
Traveling through the interior of the earth, body waves arrive before the surface waves emitted by an earthquake. These waves are of a higher frequency than surface waves.
P WAVES
The first kind of body wave is the P wave or primary wave. This is the fastest kind of seismic wave, and, consequently, the first to 'arrive' at a seismic station. The P wave can move through solid rock and fluids, like water or the liquid layers of the earth. It pushes and pulls the rock it moves through just like sound waves push and pull the air. Have you ever heard a big clap of thunder and heard the windows rattle at the same time? The windows rattle because the sound waves were pushing and pulling on the window glass much like P waves push and pull on rock. Sometimes animals can hear the P waves of an earthquake. Dogs, for instance, commonly begin barking hysterically just before an earthquake 'hits' (or more specifically, before the surface waves arrive). Usually people can only feel the bump and rattle of these waves.
P waves are also known as compressional waves, because of the pushing and pulling they do. Subjected to a P wave, particles move in the same direction that the the wave is moving in, which is the direction that the energy is traveling in, and is sometimes called the 'direction of wave propagation'.

These defenses are described as nonspecific because they do not target any specific pathogen; rather, they defend against a wide range of potential pathogens.
<h3>Is innate immunity nonspecific resistance?</h3>
The innate immune system provides this kind of nonspecific protection through a number of defense mechanisms, which include physical barriers such as the skin, chemical barriers such as antimicrobial proteins that harm or destroy invaders, and cells that attack foreign cells and body cells harbouring infectious agents.
Thus, they do not target any specific pathogen; rather, they defend against a wide range of potential pathogens.

Areas of study that try mimic science for cultural and commercial gain are called, Pseudoscience.
Answer: B. 0.77
Explanation:
We should note that from the Hardy-Weinberg law, the formula used is:
p²+ 2pq+ q² = 1
From the information given,
p = purple allele
q = red allele
q² = 59/100 = 0.59
Then, the frequency of the red allele that is recessive will be:
q² = 0.59
q= √0.59
q = 0.768.
q = 0.77
Therefore, the correct option is B.
