on page 2. what type of waves can move through liquid? primary waves surface waves secondary waves electromagnetic waves
Primary waves (P - waves) are compressional waves that can travel through solids, liquids, and gases. Secondary waves (S - waves) can only travel through solids. Surface waves are seismic waves that travel along the Earth's surface. Electromagnetic waves are not related to the ability to travel through liquids in the context of seismic - like wave behavior. So, primary waves can move through liquids.
