How were seismic waves used as evidence that the Outer Core was liquid rock instead of solid rock?

• S Waves cannot move through a liquid, and they don't move through the Outer Core.

• S Waves speed up when they move through a liquid, and they sped up through the Outer Core.

• S Waves slow down when they move into more dense material, and they do slow down when passing through the Outer Core.

• None of these answers are correct.

When convection happens in the mantle...

• the lithosphere moves.

• the hotter, less dense fluid rises while the colder, more dense material sinks.

• heat is transferred from the core up to the surface.

• earthquakes, volcanoes, and tsunamis are generated on the surface.

What is one error with this diagram?

• The subducting plate should be melting and making volcanoes above the plate that is not subducting.

• Subduction should be shutting down because two continents are colliding.

• The two plates should be pulling apart instead of crashing together.

• The lithosphere is the wrong color.
