• x) travel like sound waves
• y) can pass through liquids

• In geological studies, all of the following are TRUE of P waves except that they are slower than S waves.

EXPLANATION:-

• z) are slower than A waves is the correct option because this statement is not true after all Secondary waves also known as S waves are slower than P waves.

• w) is the wrong option because the first kind of body wave is the P wave also known as the primary wave.
• x) is the wrong option because Seismic P waves are also known as compressional or longitudinal waves, they tighten and expand (oscillate) the ground back and forth in the direction of travel which is like sound waves that move back and forth as the waves travel from source to receiver.
• y) is the wrong option because P-waves can travel through solids, liquids, and gases.
