Why is surface temperature of the oceans more variable than the water near the ocean floor?
Because Most Energy is EXCHANGED at the surface!

Why is the surface temperature of the oceans more variable than the water near the ocean floor?
In order for temperature to change the involved heat has to have some place to go. The water at the bottom of the ocean is surrounded by ground and other water that are already at the same temperature. Where can extra heat go to? At the surface the air transports heat up and away so ocean heat can leak out (or in) to the water.
What flows from rifts in the sea floor and builds up high enough to break the oceans surface?
Lava
What is the opposite of the ocean bottom?
The opposite of bottom would be the top, so the oceans surface is the opposite of the ocean floor/bottom.
What temperature is the floor of the sun?
What do you mean with "floor"? The center of the Sun is around 20 million K, the visible surface around 6000 K.
What grows on the deep oceans floor?
.
What is the main rock of the oceans floor?
basalt
What is the temperature in marine biome?
The temperature in the marine biome varies depending on location and depth. Generally, surface water temperatures can range from below freezing in polar regions to over 90°F in tropical regions. Deeper ocean waters tend to be colder, with temperatures near freezing at the ocean floor.
What is composed of the continents and the oceans floor?
Earth's crust is composed of the continents and the ocean floor.
How are new oceans formed?
sea floor spreading
What is the common rock in the oceans floor?
basalt is the common rock
What is the process by which the oceans floor sinks into the mantle is called?
Subduction.
How does the water pressure change as you go towards the oceans floor?
Pressure increases as you approach the ocean floor.
