The difference in arrival time between the two types of seismic wave can be used to calculate the distance of the earthquake's epicenter from the seismometer, as the further away an earthquake is, the greater the lag time between the detection of the S waves relative to the P waves.
If we will base our answer on Hertzsprung diagram, we
will see that mass and luminosity are directly related, which means, long lived
stars begin their lives with more mass and a larger amount of hydrogen fuel,
hence hydrogen is abundant before than now. They are more luminous during their
main sequence lives. Giant stars and supergiant
stars have great masses, so, they have greater luminosities.

B the biggest cause of hunger and malnutrition is the cost of getting food to people who need it most
Answer: The name of the biome is Tundra.
Explanation:
Tundra is the coldest of all the biomes. Tundra comes from the Finnish word tunturi, meaning treeless plain. It is noted for its frost-molded landscapes, extremely low temperatures, little precipitation, poor nutrients, and short growing seasons. Dead organic material functions as a nutrient pool. The two major nutrients are nitrogen and phosphorus. Nitrogen is created by biological fixation, and phosphorus is created by precipitation.
Characteristics of tundra include:
Extremely cold climate
Low biotic diversity
Simple vegetation structure
Limitation of drainage
Short season of growth and reproduction
Energy and nutrients in the form of dead organic material
Large population oscillations.
Definition of Term:

What is a biome? Biomes are very large ecological areas on the earth's surface, with fauna and flora (animals and plants) adapting to their environment. Biomes are often defined by abiotic factors such as temperature, climate, relief, geology, soils and vegetation.
