the continental shelf-edge or shelf-break
the continental shelf begins at the shoreline and slopes gently toward the open ocean the continental rise is the base of the continental slope, which is made up of large pites of sediment the continental slope is the edge of the continental shelf
The continental shelf is an extension of the cotton, only beneath water. The continental slope begins beyond the shelf and slopes downward.
continental shelf
The continental rise is between the continental shelf and the abyssal plain.LittoralLitoral (alternative spelling)Intertidal
continental margin
The seaward edge of the continental shelf is marked by the shelf break, which is the steep slope that descends from the continental shelf to the deep ocean floor. This is where the ocean depth abruptly increases, indicating the boundary between the continental shelf and the continental slope.
It is part of a continental plate that is submerged by the ocean. At the edge of the continental shelf, the slope suddenly increases and begins to drop off, this is called the continental slope.
The slope is the steep incline at the edge of the continental shelf that descends into the ocean depths. The continental shelf is a gently sloping, submerged portion of a continent that extends from the shoreline to the shelf break where the slope begins.
this answer does not make sense please ask another quetion.
The edge is called the shelf break. The actual declining shelf is called the called the continental slope.
It is called the continental shelf.
The continental shelf begins at the shoreline.

The part on where the continental shelf meets the continental slope creating an edge.
