Question
Take a look at the passage discussing an earthquake.
"A massive wave known as a tsunami was generated by an earthquake beneath the ocean surface. This tsunami traveled across the ocean and struck a distant island, resulting in significant destruction."
Did the water that reached the island originate from the same water located above the earthquake on the ocean floor?
(1 point)
Responses
No, the water located above the earthquake remained stationary, and only the energy was transferred.
No, the water located above the earthquake remained stationary, and only the energy was transferred.
Yes, the water particles shifted towards the island while the energy stayed situated above the earthquake.
Yes, the water particles shifted towards the island while the energy stayed situated above the earthquake.
Yes, , the energy from above the earthquake directed the individual water particles towards the island.
Yes, , the energy from above the earthquake directed the individual water particles towards the island.
No, the energy within the wave propelled the water particles from above the earthquake in the opposite direction.

The correct response is:
**No, the water located above the earthquake remained stationary, and only the energy was transferred.**
In a tsunami, the energy from the earthquake causes the water particles in the ocean to move in a way that creates waves, but the individual water particles do not travel across the ocean to the island; rather, it's the energy of the wave that propagates through the water. The water itself is mainly displaced vertically rather than moving horizontally over great distances.
**No, the water located above the earthquake remained stationary, and only the energy was transferred.**
