Mercury Has a Large Impact Crater, the Caloris Basin, Opposite

question 222

Multiple Choice

Mercury has a large impact crater, the Caloris Basin, opposite which shock waves traveling through the planet created a region called the "jumbled terrain." Callisto has a large impact crater, Valhalla. What does the surface of Callisto look like on the opposite side from Valhalla?

• A) The surface is jumbled, like that on Mercury.
• B) There is no jumbled terrain because the distance through Callisto is too great for a shock wave to travel.
• C) The opposite side of Callisto has been cratered more recently, so it is not possible to determine if a jumbled terrain was formed opposite Valhalla.
• D) There is no jumbled terrain because Callisto's partially liquid interior damped out the shock waves.
