What else can I help you with?
How do plate tectonics affect the ocean floor?
They change its size and shape.
Does continental drift show that the ocean floor is always stable?
Well, it depends. If you mean from the iceage movie, then no, that movie was ustable because it was innacurate and very fake. But if you mean by earth, I think that you are trying to get answers for your homework, yes? Well, the answer is mabye
What is seafloor spreading best described as?
sea floor spreading is were the earths crust is spreading under the ocean, going almost all the way around the earth, there are also volcanoes where the sea floor spreading, because of the magma coming up from the earth core
What ocean floor feature underwater volcano?
A seamount is an underwater volcano that rises from the ocean floor but does not reach the surface of the water. Seamounts are common features on the ocean floor and can vary in size and shape. They are usually formed by volcanic activity and can be found in all of the world's oceans.
Studying the magnetic patterns of the rocks in the floor of the ocean helps scientists do what?
Studying the magnetic patterns of ocean floor rocks helps scientists understand the movement of Earth's tectonic plates and past changes in the Earth's magnetic field. This information is crucial for reconstructing the history of plate tectonics and understanding the processes that shape the Earth's surface.
Which process or processes change the size and shape of the ocean?
subduction and sea floor spreading.
What features if the ocean have modern scientist investigated?
ocean water chemistry, currents, ocean life, and the shape of the ocean floor
How do plate tectonics affect the ocean floor?
They change its size and shape.
What scientist studies rocks and geologic processes of ocean basins?
A scientist who studies rocks and geologic processes in ocean basins is a marine geologist. They investigate the formation and evolution of the ocean floor, as well as the geological features and processes that shape ocean basins. Their research contributes to our understanding of plate tectonics, seafloor spreading, and marine geology.
What is bathymetry?
The measurement of ocean depths and the charting of the shape or topography of the ocean floor. Bathos= Depth metry= Measurement

What theory explains the processes that shape the Earths surface into mountains deep sea trenches and oceanic ridges?
the theory of sea floor spreading or continental drift
What causes the formation of sea mounts?
They are volcanic in origin, conical in shape and at least 1000 metres above the ocean floor
What is it called to alter a shape?
deform
