In a compression or longitudinal wave, the compression is a point on a medium through which a longitudinal wave is traveling that has the maximum density. Rarefaction is the point of least density.

A)compression

Explanation:

A longitudinal wave is defined as a wave in which the oscillations of the particles occur in a direction parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave. An example of longitudinal wave is sound waves, in which particles of air (or any other medium) are displaced back and forth along the direction of propagation of the wave.

The oscillations of these particles produce regions which have lower density of air particles and regions which have higher density of air particles. The former are called rarefactions, while the latter are called compression.

The problem is asking us for the name of the regions where the density is maximum: therefore, the correct answer is compression.

cell differentiation  is how generic embryonic  cells  become specialized  cells. this occurs  through a process called gene expression. gene expression is the specific combination of genes that are turned on or off (expressed or repressed), and this is what dictates how a  cell  functions.
