Why does the oceanic crust slide beneath the continental crust at a subduction zone?
This is because the land mass is more buoyant, or lighter, than the oceanfloor.
What are the different types of seafloor sediments?
Undisturbed seafloor sediments will carry a history of what has transpired there, much like glacial ice or peat bogs. Some interesting and potentially valuable mineral deposits are also found on the seafloor, eg. manganese nodules, metals from black smokers, and of course, deep in the rock, oil.
What makes up oceanic crust?
The bulk of oceanic crust is composed of the extrusive rock basalt, the remainder being lithified and non-lithified sediments.
