What is the source material in basaltic magma?
Oceanic crust and oceanic sediments.
Is it true that the salinity of an ocean will increase when a freshwater source flows into it?
False
What is the major component of oceanic crust?
Basalt.
Which of the following is a major property of ocean water A salinity salt or sodium B mineral content C pressure D plankton content?
salinity salt or sodium
What major ocean can be affected by global warming?
Any of them. They all react to temperature and change in salinity.
What is the major source of the dissolved minerals that affect the salinity of ocean water?
Continental Erosion
What is the source material in basaltic magma?
Oceanic crust and oceanic sediments.
Principle of constant proportions used to determine salinity?
yes..somewhat. It states that the ratio of major salts in samples of seawater from various places is constant. It can give you a rough answer to salinity ,but salinity varies because of elements not included in the major salts of the ocean. If there were no other factors then it would be able to tell you the salinity.

Where are the major volcanic mountains found?
Along the mid oceanic ridges.
What is the driving force of oceanic?
Deep ocean circulation(90% of ocean water) is caused by differences in temperature, salinity and suspended load. It is referred to as "Thermohaline"- meaning heat and salt- circulation.
What is the major source of solar energy?
the major source is sun
What major ocean can be affected by global warming?
Any of them. They all react to temperature and change in salinity.
The oceanic ridge system is the major site of?
Crust creation and plate divergence.
