Where is the most water on earth?
Oceans contain the most water because they cover the majority of the earth's surface and are often very deep. I would say the pacific ocean holds the most water of any one specific place on the planet.
What is the name of the theory that explains how forces within the earth can cause ocean floor to spread and continents to move?
Theory of plate tectonics explains how forces deep within earth can cause ocean floors to spread and continents to move
The ocean floor is divided into two major regions?
The ocean floor is divided into two major regions: the continental margin, which includes the continental shelf, slope, and rise, and the deep ocean basin, which includes abyssal plains, seamounts, trenches, and mid-ocean ridges. These regions have distinct geological features and play important roles in shaping the Earth's surface.
What evidence supports the idea that the earth is neither growing or shrinking in size?
One piece of evidence is that the weight of Earth's atmosphere hasn't significantly increased or decreased, which would be expected if Earth were growing or shrinking significantly. Another is the conservation of angular momentum, which would be disrupted if Earth was changing size. Additionally, measurements from satellite data and seismic activity show no significant changes in Earth's overall size.
What is deep-ocean trench?
A deep-ocean trench is a long, narrow depression in the ocean floor where tectonic plates are being pulled into the Earth's mantle in a process called subduction. These trenches are some of the deepest parts of the ocean and are typically associated with intense seismic activity and volcanic processes.
Why is the ocean deep?
the ocean is deep because that is the shape of the earth and although we are not sure how deep the ocean is we do know that there is life in the deep. the ocean has made itself deep but there is really no cause that is known.
What is deep-trenches?
a deep-ocean trench is a portion of the earth crust
What would flow deep down in the ocean?
The most common answer would be deep ocean currents.
Are there hill and mountains under the ocean?
Sure. The mountains are often tall enough to poke through the surface of the ocean where they are called islands. There are deep valleys under the ocean, too. Some are deep enough that you could put Mount Everest in the ocean into these valleys, and it would be completely covered in water.
What is deep oceans trenches?
a deep-ocean trench is a portion of the earth crust
What are the ratings and certificates for Planet Earth - 2006 Ocean Deep 1-11?
Planet Earth - 2006 Ocean Deep 1-11 is rated/received certificates of: Australia:G
Why is the ocean so deep?
The ocean is deep because of the Earth's crust, which is thinner under the ocean than on land. This allows more space for water to fill, creating the deep ocean basins. Additionally, the movement of tectonic plates can also create deep trenches in the ocean floor.
What is the deepest ocean trench that has been discover?
The deepest point on the Earth's surface is Challenger Deep, part of the Marianas Trench in the Pacific Ocean
How deep can water be?
Water can only be as deep as the container it is in. On earth the deepest it can be would be measured at the deepest point in the Ocean. That point is the Mariana Trench, which is almost 36,000 ft (6.8 miles) deep. However, this is not a limit of the water. Only a limit of the earth.
What other ocean floor feature is formed by movement of Earth's plates?
what other ocean floor feature is fromed by movement of earth's plates
What causes deep ocean surface currents?
The gravitation pull on the earth.
The deepest lay of the earth is?
The deepest point in any ocean is the Mariana Trench (aka Challenger Deep) in the western Pacific Ocean at 11,033 metres deep.
