What is the name of the oceanic boundary that marks the edge of the Antarctic zone?

Labeling boundaries in liquid water is difficult, so these boundaries are usually marked by latitude.
Sixty degrees S marks the northern-most edge of the Southern Ocean and the southern-most edges of the South Atlantic, the South Pacific and the South Indian oceans.

What type of boundary is the cascades?
The Cascade Range is formed along convergent plate boundaries. This is when plates move toward each other. more specifically the type of plate collision that caused the Cascades is an oceanic-continental convergence. This is when a plate with continental leading edge slowly collides with a plate that has an oceanic leading edge.
How can crust disappear at the edge of the boundary?
New crust is being added to the other edge of the boundary
How can crust disappear at the edge of a boundary?
New crust is being added to the other edge of the boundary
When an oceanic plate collides with a oceanic plate?
terranes are attached to the edge of a continent
Which boundary forms new crust?
Crust is formed at the edge of a tectonic plate by, when a volcano erupts, the lava or magma (same thing) hits the edge of a tectonic plate and cools and dries on the edge of that tectonic plate.
What kind of plate boundary does subduction take place at?
A convergent plate boundary. a piece of continental crust and a piece of oceanic crust meeting at a convergent boundary.
What marks the true edge of a continent?
The true edge of a continent is typically marked by the coastline or shoreline where the land meets the ocean. This boundary is defined by geological features such as cliffs, beaches, or shallow coastal waters that separate the continent from the open sea. Geographers and scientists use various criteria to determine the exact edge of a continent, including tectonic plate boundaries and the extent of continental shelf.
Do the words 'boundary' and 'edge' mean the same thing?
No edge is like to a cliff but a boundary is like a football field or a basketball court.
How many edge and vertice in oval?
One edge (boundary) and no vertices.
What is produced when the oceanic edge bends downward?
An Ocean Trench.
What is an absorption edge?
An absorption edge is the boundary of a dark bad in an x-ray spectrum.
What marks the edge of a continent?
The edge of a continent is typically marked by a coastline, where the land meets the ocean. This transition can include cliffs, beaches, and coastal plains. Additionally, continental shelves are submerged platforms of land that extend from the coastline into the ocean.
