POSSIBLE POINTS: 0.22
Students are developing a model called a Venn diagram to compare light and sound waves. In a Venn diagram, there are three sections. One section of the Venn diagram made by the students needs to show the characteristics of light waves, and the other section should contain characteristics of sound waves. The middle section that shows overlapping circles represents the characteristics that these two types of waves have in common. The students' partially completed model is shown below.
Which characteristics should be added to the middle section of the model to make it complete?
