Because less neural processing is required and the nerve "circuitry" is much simpler for auditory input than for visual input.

Who has a faster reflex boys or girls in a. Visual reactions and b. Audio reactions?
There is no significant difference in boys or girls for visual reactions or auditory reactions. For both genders, visual cues take longer to process than auditory stimuli.
Why might there be differences in reaction time between auditory and visual cues?
Simple reaction time studies show that RT to auditory stimuli is faster than visual stimuli. This is because the sensory process for light is more neurologically complex than for auditory cues. For light to be processed, it has a longer path to take in the brain, going all the way to the back of the brain to the occipital lobe and then back to the eyes. Auditory stimuli is processed in the ear then sent to the temporal lobe and back to the ear; a relatively shorter distance than the vision pathway. Reaction time to auditory cues in normal, healthy subjects is roughly 180 milliseconds for auditory cues and about 220 milliseconds.
Why is secondary response quicker and more robust than primary response?
It depends on which responses you are talking about. In the autonomic system of the body that protects if from harm, the first response is quicker and the secondary response is more robust, and that is because it takes longer to involve more systems in the body to be called into action.

Why we use graphs?
To represent the data Graphs give a visual representation of progress (or regress) and they are much quicker and easier to grasp than a boring stack of numbers.
How can you memorize row 4 of the periodic table?
I suggest making flashcards if you are a visual learner. If you are an auditory learner (hearing) than i suggest repeating them out loud or listening to them. If you are an kinetic learner (doing) than i suggest that you make up some sort of game for them.

What are the pros of a condensor mic?
The transducer (pickup element) has less mass than a dynamic mic, therefore is quicker in response to a change in sound and can detect smaller changes.
