List the subdivisions of the continenal margin?
The three parts of the continental margins are the Continental shelf, the Continental slope, and the Continental rise.
What is a continental slope?
The continental slope is the area between the offshore shallows out to where the continental shelf dips steeply to the sea floor. It connects those two areas. The continental shelf is where the shallow waters of the ocean meet the shore. Farther out, the water gets progressively deeper, and this is the continental slope. At the outer edge of the continental slope, the bottom drops sharply away and plunges to the deep ocean. The Wikipedia article has more information and some drawings and diagrams. A link is provided. The steep slopingpart of the ocean floor termination of continental shelves is called continental slope.
Slopes equals rise over?

What is The slope of a line is determined by using?
The slope of a line is determined using the coordinates of at least 2 points on the line. If you have 2 points (A, B) and (C, D), the slope of the line can be determined using the formula (B - D) / (A - C) or (D - B) / (C - A) which is essentially the difference of the y-coordinates divided by the difference of the x - coordinates. Alternately, you could think of it as "rise over run", the increase in height (change in y) between the two points over the horizontal distance traveled (change in x).
What is potential drop?
There is no difference between potential difference and potential drop. Both terms refer to the difference in voltage (i.e. potential) across a component. Depending on how you look at it, both terms can refer to positive or negative differences, i.e. drop, for instance, can be negative, implying a rise.
This area is between the continental slope and ocean basin?
The area you are referring to is known as the continental rise. It is located at the base of the continental slope and consists of a thick accumulation of sediments that have been transported down from the continent. The continental rise marks the transition between the continental margin and the deep ocean basin.
The continental rise is located?
The continental rise is located at the base of the continental slope, where the incline lessens and sediment from the continent accumulates. It marks the transition between the continental margin and the deep ocean basin.
What do the continental shelf continental slope and continental rise combine to form?
The continental shelf, continental slope, and continental rise combine to form the continental margin. The continental margin is the transition zone between the continent and the deep ocean basin.
What does continental temperature mean?
The temperature of the continental rise is the temp of your dick
The continental shelf continental slope and continental rise combine to form what?
The continental shelf, continental slope, and continental rise combine to form the continental margin.
What is the continental shelf continental slope and continental rise combine to?
The continental shelf, slope, and rise combine to form the continental margin. The continental shelf is the shallow, submerged extension of a continent, the slope is the steep incline that leads to the ocean floor, and the rise is the gently sloping accumulation of sediment at the base of the slope. Together, they make up the transition zone between the continent and the deep ocean.
List the subdivisions of the continenal margin?
The three parts of the continental margins are the Continental shelf, the Continental slope, and the Continental rise.
Describe the subdivisions of the continental margin?
The continental margin consists of three main subdivisions: the continental shelf, the continental slope, and the continental rise. The continental shelf is the shallow, gently sloping portion closest to the shore. The continental slope is the steeper portion that connects the shelf to the deep ocean floor. The continental rise is the transition zone between the slope and the deep ocean basin, where sediments accumulate.
What is a passive continental rise?
A passive continental rise is a gentle slope between the continental slope and the deep ocean floor. It is formed by sediments that accumulate from the erosional processes on the continental slope. The sediments typically consist of finer grains such as silt and clay.
Zone between the continental shelf and abyssal plain?
The continental rise is between the continental shelf and the abyssal plain.LittoralLitoral (alternative spelling)Intertidal
What area is between the continental slope and ocean basin?
The area between the continental slope and the ocean basin is known as the continental rise. It is a gradual incline where sediments transported from the continental shelf and slope accumulate before settling in the abyssal plain of the ocean basin.
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.
