25 Mar

While researching a topic, a student has taken the following notes:

  • Earthquakes start at a point called a “focus” and spread out from there as seismic waves.
  • The two types of seismic waves that travel beneath Earth’s surface are primary waves (P waves) and secondary waves (S waves).
  • P waves travel more quickly beneath Earth’s surface than do S waves.
  • P waves compress and expand the ground, causing it to move backward and forward.
  • S waves cause the ground to move from side to side.

The student wants to emphasize a similarity between P waves and S waves. Which choice most effectively uses relevant information from the notes to accomplish this goal?
