The shadow zone exists because

the mantle and core are composed of different material

P waves refract as they travel through Earth. The shadow zone exists because of seismic waves. The shadows show when the earth spins around.

Regional metamorphism can occur.

What depositional environments is coal formed in

A swamp

If the birthrate is 10 per 1000 and the death rate is 10 per 1000 then the growth rate is zero.
