What else can I help you with?
Are there sea shells on mountains?
Yes, some mountains were once underwater, so it's possible to find sea shells on mountains. These sea shells are typically found in areas where tectonic activities have pushed the sea floor up to form mountains.
Sea mountains are volcanic mountains located on the ocean floor?
Not exactly. Sea mountains are underwater topographic features that rise above the ocean floor but are not necessarily volcanic in origin. They can be formed through various geological processes such as tectonic activity or erosion.
What are Mountains on the ocean floor that turn into volcanic islands called?
Mountains on the ocean floor that rise above sea level and form volcanic islands are called seamounts. These seamounts are formed by volcanic activity and can eventually emerge from the water to become volcanic islands.
Where do seamounts form?
Seamounts are volcanic mountains under the sea. They form where magma pushes IRS way through or between tectonic plates. Once they rise above sea level, they are then considered volcanic islands.
Can rocks from the sea form mountains?
Yes, rocks from the sea can form mountains through the process of plate tectonics. When oceanic plates collide with continental plates, the oceanic plate is forced beneath the continental plate in a process called subduction. This can lead to the formation of mountain ranges such as the Andes in South America.
Are there sea shells on mountains?
Yes, some mountains were once underwater, so it's possible to find sea shells on mountains. These sea shells are typically found in areas where tectonic activities have pushed the sea floor up to form mountains.
Are there any mountains on the ocean floor on the ocean floor?
Derr! there called sea mount's.
What is at the bottom of the sea?
The ocean bottom, ocean floor or sea floor has geography just like the surface. Mountains and canyons and vast open plains stretch out to form a "landscape" there. Use the link below to learn more.
What prominent feature of the ocean floor is missing from the Sea Floor Spreading Model at this point?
Mountains
Can mountains form under the sea?
Mountains can form anywhere there is seismic activity, even under the sea. Some of the Hawaiian Islands are in reality the peaks of mountains!
Where does the new rocks form on the sea floor?
Forms by lava from volcanoes on the sea floor
Hutton thought that rocks from the sea floor could be pushed up very high to form?
mountains, thus proposing the theory of uniformitarianism to explain the formation of geological features on Earth.
What are conical undersea mountains?
Seamounts are undersea mountains that rise 1,000 meters above the sea floor.
How does new ocean floor form?
Sea Floor Spreading!
What is the mountains the river and the sea which form Europe's eastern boundary?
The Ural Mountains,the Ural river,and the Caspian Sea.
What is higher a continent or the ocean floor?
Since everything is measured at sea level then a continent would be above sea level thus higher than the sea floor which would be below sea level, but there are mountains under the sea that are every bit as high as the highest mountains on any continent.
Sea mountains are volcanic mountains located on the ocean floor?
Not exactly. Sea mountains are underwater topographic features that rise above the ocean floor but are not necessarily volcanic in origin. They can be formed through various geological processes such as tectonic activity or erosion.
