It is the surface of the earth, except it is under water instead of under air.
What else can I help you with?
What is the depth of ocean all over the earth?
The ocean floor is very much like dry terrain; it has mountains and valleys, so the depth is not constant all over earth.
How is the ocean floor like a conveyor belt?
because thats the way it is Whoever wrote this must be an absolute genius. The real answer is that when THE EARTH SPINS IT CREAATES THE NEW OCEAN FLOOR WHICH ALSO CREATES THE CONVEYOR BELT
How is earth atmosphere like an ocean how is it unlike an ocean?
the earth is like an ocean because their bost vast
Is the sea floor smooth and level?
Yes, in many places it is. But like the surface of the earth that you can see, the ocean floor has many different topographies. The ocean floor has mountains, volcanoes, deep valleys, and reefs. There vast areas of vegetation and areas that are devoid of vegetation, often due to how deep they are and how much sunlight penetrates. There are also arctic regions of ocean floor as well as tropical regions. The ocean floor is really as varied as the continents above the water.
What is the layer below the continents and the ocean floor?
The layer below the continents and the ocean floor is the Earth's mantle. It is a solid layer of rock that extends about 1,800 miles (2,900 kilometers) beneath the Earth's surface. The mantle is responsible for the movement of tectonic plates and drives processes like earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.
Can Jupiter's moon support life?
Yes. If it were life like we know it here on earth, it would have to be located deep in Europa's ocean near thermal (heat) vents in the ocean's floor.
What happens to an earthquake when it travels from its source to the ocean floor?
the ocean floor starts to break up just like the land does .
Why is oceanography part of Earth Science?
In Earth science you learn how things happen on Earth like how volcanoes erupt, how earthquakes start, and oceanography talks about the ocean floor moving and how coral reefs form.
Can jupiters moons Europe support life?
Yes. If it were life like we know it here on earth, it would have to be located deep in Europa's ocean near thermal (heat) vents in the ocean's floor.
Which of thee following is not a technology that helps us know what the ocean floor is like?
A bicycle is not a technology that helps us know what the ocean floor is like. Sonar, bathymetry, and remote-operated vehicles are technologies commonly used for mapping the ocean floor.
What is the depth of all of the what?
The ocean floor is very much like dry terrain; it has mountains and valleys, so the depth is not constant all over earth.
Why do scientists look to the ocean floor to research the mantle?
Why do scientists look to the ocean floor to research the mantle? Because magma from the mantle flows out of active volcanoes on the ocean floor. These underwater volcanoes have given scientists many clues about the composition of the mantle.
