All the true oceans connect into one large body of water, but it is also true that there are some isolated seas, such as the Caspian Sea, the Dead Sea etc., which are not connected to the ocean.
A good argument can be made that there is only one ocean because there are no physical barriers separating the oceans from one another. For example, one can travel from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic Ocean by boat simply by sailing around the southern tip of South America.
The Oceans have more Gold dissolved in them than there is in all of the gold mines on Earth.
The five oceans of Earth are connected, so that all of the continents could be considered islands in a single large ocean. aka bubblezz
The Pacific, Atlantic and Indian Oceans all meet the Southern Ocean, the only one that does not is the Arctic Ocean.
Technically it's all one ocean, but the oceans formed when comets brought water to the Earth, and that water ran downhill until it collected into the lower areas of the Earth's crust.

yes. Yes all oceans are all one, such as the Pacific and indian, are all part of one, huge, big ocean.
The oceans. If they are counted as one body the Pacific, Atlantic, Indian, Arctic and Southern Oceans are easily the largest bodies of salt water on Earth. The Pacific Ocean is the largest of the oceans.
The world's oceans are:Arctic,Atlantic,Indian,PacificThere are four oceans, unless you count the Antarctic (which some do and some don't) in which case there are five.Although the oceans of the earth are all connected and truly one "World Ocean," most often the world is divided into four major "oceans" - the Pacific Ocean, Atlantic Ocean, Arctic Ocean, and the Indian Ocean. Some consider there to be five oceans - the fifth being an ocean surrounding Antarctica called the Antarctic Ocean or Southern Ocean.There are 5 oceans on earth but people say there are 7 but that's not true there are 5 oceans and 7 seas.
first of all the earth has only existed for a couple thousand years and God created the oceans at one time there wasn't only one.
Historically, there are four oceans: Atlantic, Pacific, Arctic, and Indian. These oceans are recognized by almost all oceanic organizations around the world. It is the standard classification that is held by National Geographics. Technically, there is only a single ocean: the world ocean.
Scientists refer to the ocean water on Earth as the global ocean because it is one interconnected body of water that covers over 70% of the planet's surface. Despite being divided into different seas and oceans, they are all part of the same continuous body of water. Viewing it as one global entity helps scientists study its interconnected systems and processes.
