scientest know about the structure of the earths interior from earthquakes
Scientists use seismic waves from earthquakes to study the Earth's interior. By analyzing how these waves travel through the layers of the Earth, they can determine the composition and structure of the planet without physically reaching the core.
Scientists study about the Earth's interior for many reasons. Some include knowing how the inner layers of the Earth work and act allows us to better predict the effects and locations of earthquakes and volcanoes. They also study more about its magnetic field, and long-term continental drift.
the three ways in which we know about the interior of the earth are:volcanoesearthquake waves-under the earthdrilling
None (that we know of).
no i do not know the answer

id ont know
Scientists use seismic waves from earthquakes to determine the depths of Earth's layers. The speed and behavior of these waves change as they pass through different materials, allowing scientists to infer the structure of Earth's interior. This technique, called seismic tomography, helps researchers map the boundaries between Earth's layers and understand their composition and properties.
Primary Waves or P waves come first and they are the quickest and travel through earth's interior. So if there is an earthquake in China the P wave will go through the earth and onto the other side in a couple of seconds and scientists know this because only a p wave can travel through liquid, solid, and gas and the interior of the earth is made up of semi-molten rock, molten rock and solid rock so we kind or know how the earth is inside.
scientists can tell what the interior looks like by the different type of waves there is. scientists know that P (primary) waves can travel through any substance, and that S (secondary) waves can travel only through solids and stop at liquids when P waves slow down at liquids. when they monitor the p and s waves they realize that after a certain distance (2932 km) the s waves stop and p waves slow down. thus meaning it is in the liquefied outer core. but after a certain amount of time the p waves speed up again. this means it has left the outer core into the solid inner core.
Scientists use ground-penetrating radar, drilling, and other geophysical techniques to create images of the interior of sinkholes. By studying the layers of sediment and rock, as well as any water present, they can infer the structure and shape of the sinkhole underground.
They must infer its components and processes from the rocks they find on the surface, as well as other things they know about the solar system from both meteorites as well as the materials of the Earth. They study the chemical and mineral composition and structure of lunar rocks, and this can tell them what the interior looks like based on what they know about different mineral densities and melting points, etc., and how that fits into the current understanding of how the moon formed about 4.5 billion years ago.
Scientists have determined what the interior of the earth is like through analyzing seismic or earthquake wave
scientists know the mass and the volume of earth how could this information help them make inferences about thr kind of matter that makes up the earth interior

they take plants and animals to the lab and experiment
Because is gives evidence for the Scientists that want to know more about the past. :)
