P-waves refract as they travel through Earth so do not rach all other pars of the earth's surface. Also S-waves can't travel through liquids and so can't pass through the earth's outer core which also causes a shadow zone.

Shadow zones are areas where seismically waves do not travel?

Shadow zones are regions on Earth where seismic waves are unable to reach due to the planet's core structure blocking or refracting them. These zones help scientists to understand Earth's interior composition by observing the behavior of seismic waves as they travel through different layers of the planet. Shadow zones can vary in size and shape depending on the type of seismic waves and the properties of the Earth's core.
