3. p waves travel faster than s waves, and are the first waves recorded by a seismograph in the event of a disturbance. p waves travel at speeds between 1 and 14 km per second, while s waves travel significantly slower, between 1 and 8 km per second.
4. seismic waves, the waves of energy that travel through earth as a result of an earthquake can tell us a lot about the internal structure of the earth because the waves travel at different speeds in different materials. there are two types of waves that travel through the earth: p waves and s waves.
Answer:
25000 fragments
Explanation:
A restriction enzyme can cut a random DNA sequence once per every 4^n where n = number of bases in the recognition site of enzyme.
There are 6 bases in Xbal's recognition site (TCTAGA) so it will cut once per every 4^6 = 4096 bases (4kb).
Total genomic size = 100000kb
So expected number of fragments = Total genomic size/Size of one fragment
= 100000/4
= 25000 fragments
This would be called an ion. Tch.
In converting a number with the unit of meter into kilometer we must use the conversion factor 1 km per 1000 meters.This is because in 1 kilometer there are 1000 meters and then the unit to be converted is already in meter so we need to divide it for us to convert.
