Yes, approximately a hundred miles or so West, South West of San Diego, CA lies the Cortez Bank. The sight of underwater mountains that in some spots are only 3-6 feet below the surface.

The ocean can range from 36,000 feet deep (Challenger Deep, Mariana Trench) to only a few millimeters deep at the beach.
Only a little bit of the ocean is discovered so it may be alive lurking in the deep ocean
my answer is an ocean is the larger than a sea because the ocean surrounds the whole world the sea is only different parts of the world.
Because it is so far deep only 1% of light gets through
Because 75% of the earth is ocean
The ocean is heated only by the sun. Light and heat do not penetrate deep in the ocean water...
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.
The three types of ocean currents are surface currents, deep currents, and tidal currents. Surface currents are driven by winds, deep currents are driven by density and temperature differences, and tidal currents are driven by the gravitational pull of the moon and sun.
Unfortunately at the moment no. More people have been in space and have walked on the Moon, then have been to the deepest parts of the Oceans. Why is this you ask, the answer is very simple, Pressure, the deep you go in the ocean the high the pressure gets. In the deepest parts of the Ocean, the pressure down there is a staggering 15,966 pounds (7.24 metric tonnes) per square inch, or roughly 1,086 times the pressure we live with at sea level. The Temperature down there is 27°F (-3°C), it is kept liquid by the amount of pressure from all the water above. You have to have specially made submersibles to get down that deep, and at the moment there are only robotic craft that can go that deep.
Knee is only one syllable.
It depends on how deep the bottom is. Coral can only survive in relatively shallow water, so most of the ocean floor is coral free.
Ocean water has a salinity of 34.6-34.8ppt. Simply put, for every 1000 parts water, it has 34.6-34.8 parts dissolved materials. "Salt" is a complex word. it's not just table salt - it's chlorine, potassium, sodium, calcium, magnesium ions and many other elements. Ocean salinity can be defined in many ways. You may choose to measure chlorinity or conductivity to describe salinity. Salinity is also affected by temperature and atmospheric pressure. Ocean water salinity varies only slightly from reef to deep ocean.
