The correct statement is:
The mantle is both solid and liquid, while the inner core is entirely solid.
The Earth's mantle is primarily solid but has areas that behave like a viscous liquid over long periods due to convection. The inner core, on the other hand, is solid despite being under extremely high temperatures and pressures.
The two main elements found in the core of the Earth are:
iron and nickel.
S-waves (shear waves) cannot travel through liquids. Therefore, they can only move through solid layers. The correct response is:
inner core, mantle, and crust.
S-waves can travel through the solid inner core, the solid mantle, and the solid crust, but they cannot travel through the outer core, which is liquid.
