widened margins
Which geologic force creates the narrow continental margin surrounding the pacific ocean?

when was one of these is not a part of he continental margin?
The continental margin consists of the continental shelf, continental slope, and continental rise. One feature that is not part of the continental margin is the abyssal plain, which lies deeper in the ocean and beyond the continental rise. The abyssal plain represents the flat, deep-sea floor that extends across the ocean basins, while the continental margin is specifically associated with the transition from land to ocean.
What is continental margin?
The continental margin is the zone of the ocean floor that separates the thin oceanic crust from thick continental crust.
What covers that Atlantic Ocean's continental margin?
The Atlantic ocean.
What does the continental margin consist of?
The continental margin is the zone of ocean floor that separates oceanic crust and continental crust. It accounts for 28% of all oceanic area.
What are the three regions of the ocean floor?
the continental Margin, Ocean Basin Floor and Mid-Ocean ridge :D
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.
What zone is not included in the continental margin?
The abyssal zone is not included in the continental margin. It is the deep ocean floor beyond the continental shelf, slope, and rise.
What is one structure you would find at an active continental margin that you would not find at a passive continental margin?
On an active continental margin, you would be likely to find an active ocean trench. This structure would generally not occur at a passive continental margin.
What are the 2 major regions of the ocean?
The continental margin and the deep ocean basin
The ocean floor is divided into two major regions?
The ocean floor is divided into two major regions: the continental margin, which includes the continental shelf, slope, and rise, and the deep ocean basin, which includes abyssal plains, seamounts, trenches, and mid-ocean ridges. These regions have distinct geological features and play important roles in shaping the Earth's surface.
