What are the key zones and organisms in an ocean biosystem?
Sunlight, twilight, midnight, and sea trench zones
The blank ocean basin is rimmed by the most subduction zones?
The Pacific Ocean basin is rimmed by the most subduction zones. These subduction zones form as one tectonic plate is forced beneath another, creating deep ocean trenches. The Pacific Ring of Fire, which encircles the Pacific Ocean, is known for having numerous subduction zones and is associated with high levels of seismic activity and volcanic eruptions.
What criteria are used for determining ocean zones?
Da fishies
Why does oceanic lithosphere sink at subduction zones but not at mid ocean ridges?
oceanic lithosphere sinks at subduction zones but not at mid ocean ridges because at subduction zones the oceanic lithosphere is subducted, or sinks, under another plate. Oceanic Lithosphere sinks at subduction zones which are usually at convergent boundaries, but at mid-ocean ridges the plates are actually separating not coming together
Ocean plates are pushed down into the upper mantle in what?
Subduction Zones.
What deep ocean feature form at subduction zones?
Trenches are deep ocean features of subduction zones.
