Seismic waves that can pass through the centre of the Earth must be capable of travelling through liquids (as the outer core is molten). As such we know that these waves are longitudinal or compression waves.
Seismic waves than changes direction and speed because of the matter it's passing through and the moving from different matter's (Inner core-Outer core)
Seismograms recorded during earthquakes help scientists learn about the composition of the earth by measuring the seismic waves that travel through the different layers of the Earth. The characteristics of these waves, such as their speed and amplitude, can provide information about the density, elasticity, and temperature of the materials they pass through. By analyzing seismograms from different locations, scientists can map the structure and properties of the Earth's interior, including the boundaries between different layers and the presence of seismic discontinuities.
If you mean Earth's interior, only longitudinal waves can pass through the liquid parts.
Seismic waves travels faster through solid rock than water because their speed depends on the density and composition of material that they pass through.Solid rock is denser than water, hence the energy from seismic waves transfer faster through solid rock than in water.
When the waves pass through soft soils (sediments) they slow down and amplify.
Seismic waves pass through the earth when part of earth's crust breaks.
When the waves pass through soft soils (sediments) they slow down and amplify.

There is no seismic wave that can only pass through the Earth's mantle. However S-waves can not travel through earth's outer core because it is a liquid.
They go faster through the inner core than the liquid outer core.
