What is made of sediment and located at the bottom of the continental slope?

How are the continental shelf slope and rise related?
The continental shelf, slope, and rise are all part of the continental margin. The continental shelf is the flat, shallow portion closest to the shore, followed by the continental slope, which descends steeply to the ocean floor. The continental rise is a gentle incline at the base of the continental slope. These features are connected and represent the transition from the continent to the deep ocean basin.

What is a continental margin?
A continental margin is the zone of transition between a continent and the deep ocean floor. It includes the continental shelf, continental slope, and continental rise. It is an area where sediments from the continent are deposited and tectonic activity can occur.
