Describe the subdivisions of the continental margin?
The subdivisions of the continenetal mmarging is the continental Slope, Continental Shelf and the Continental Rise
The continental shelf continental slope and continental rise combine to form the?
The continental shelf is basically an extension of a continent into an ocean. It is underwater during interglacial periods (such as today) but dry during glacial periods. The continental slope is the sloping area between the continental shelf and the continental rise (where the continental plate meets the oceanic plate). The continental shelf and the continental slope together are called the continental margin. The continental rise is located at the bottom of the continental slope and is formed by the accumulation of sediment from the continent. Past the continental rise lies the abyssal plain which is the flat ocean floor.
Steep area between continental shelf and ocean floor?
The steep area between the continental shelf and the ocean floor is called the continental margin. A continental margin is usually composed of a steep continental slope that is followed by the flatter continental rise.

Oceanic and Continental crusts are alike because they both shift and move and grow. They differ by there rock types. Oceanic crust is made up of dense basalt while continental crust is made up of less dense granite.
