Why are P-waves received, but S-waves are not received by seismic stations located on the opposite side of Earth from an earthquake epicenter?

The reason why P-waves are received, but S-waves are not received by seismic stations is because P-waves can travel through the Earth and can reach every seismograph station.

It should be noted that and S waves are types of seismic waves. P-waves are received, but S-waves are not received by seismic stations due to the fact that S-waves can't travel through the liquid core of the Earth.

P-waves can travel through the Earth and can reach every seismograph station, unlike S-waves that can't go through the liquid outer core. It only creates a shadow.

P and S waves are types of seismic waves .P-waves is primary because they are fastest and S-waves are secondary because they are slower.

P waves travel through solids, liquids and gases while S waves travel only through solids.

The reason whey P waves are received but S-waves are not received by seismic stations located on the opposite side of Earth from an earthquake epicenter is because those waves(S-waves) cannot travel through the liquid core of the earth.

answer; ///i believe that the correct answer is (the worksheet);

true, i don't really know what you're asking but from the info you provided im guessing the answer is true.
