The answers are:
a. physical geography
b. human geography
Geography is divided into two main branches, physical geography, and human geography, and after that, they branch out much more and include the other geographical disciplines in them.
Physical geography is mainly concerned with the study of the natural characteristics of the Earth, both the ones on the surface and the once close to the surface.
Human geography is mainly focused on the study of the human race, the background, perceptions, interactions, organizing, human groups, effects on and from the environment etc.

Seismic waves are sent through the earth during earthquakes, and those
energy waves are what cause the ground to shake as they travel through
it.Seismic waves travel at different speeds when they pass through
different types of material, so by studying seismograms, scientists can
learn a lot about Earth's internal structure.Body waves are seismic
waves that travel through Earth's interior, or its 'body.' Surface waves
are seismic waves that travel through Earth's surface.Surface waves are
important, but they don't provide much information about what happens
below the surface. For this, we need to study body waves so that we can
see what Earth's 'body' is like.
There are two types of body waves, called P waves and S waves. P
stands for primary waves because these waves travel the fastest and are
detected first. S stands for secondary waves because these are slower
than P waves, arriving second on the seismogram.
Answer:
50%
Explanation:
One in five species on Earth now faces extinction, and that will rise to 50% by the end of the century unless urgent action is taken.
Answer:
A group or a chain of islands is called archipelago.
Explanation:
The seas and oceans are not just open spaces of water with nothing interrupting them, instead they have hundreds of thousands or even millions of islands rising from them. The islands vary in size, and what can be considered as an island is still debatable, but they can be anywhere from few tens of meters to hunderds of thousands of square km.
The chains or groups of islands are called archipelago. In order to distinguish them from one another they have to have some similraties and most often they need to have the same geological history and processes that created them. An archipelago can be formed in multiple ways. Along the subduction zones there are always archipelagoes, and this is due to the volcanic activity. Another creator of archipelagoes are the hot spots because they are static but the plates move on top of them, thus draging the islands from the hot spot and new rising above it. Also, if the characteristics of the topography of an area are such that when the sea levels rise, there can be a formation of an archipelago where the lower areas will be under water while the higher places would remain above water.
