Option C both 1. P-waves (Primary Waves): These are longitudinal waves, similar to sound waves, and can travel through solids, liquids, and gases. Statement 1 is correct because P-waves compress and expand the medium, similar to sound waves. 2. S-waves (Secondary Waves): These are transverse waves and can travel only through solids because they require a rigid medium for propagation. Statement 2 is correct as S-waves cannot pass through liquids or gases.

Answer- C ... ❤ one plate which is denser goes below the other one that is lighter. And in this case indian plate is denser ( consists of continental plus oceanic crust) and goes below the Eurasian plate. No subduction happens btw continental plates convergence so here the indian plate is also not subducting into mantle layer ( Or Asthenosphere) rather it is just going below and uplifts the Eurasian plate. But here due to confusion mam said Eurasian plate is going below rather that the Indian one but it's okay it happens sometimes 😊

It happens sir... one plate which is denser goes below the other one that is lighter. And in this case indian plate is denser ( consists of continental plus oceanic crust) and goes below the Eurasian plate. Yes somehow you are also correct that no subduction happens btw continental plates convergence so here the indian plate is also not subducting into mantle layer ( Or Asthenosphere) rather it is just going below and uplifts the Eurasian plate.
