Why does oceanic lithosphere sink at subduction zones but not at mid ocean ridges?

oceanic lithosphere sinks at subduction zones but not at mid ocean ridges because at subduction zones the oceanic lithosphere is subducted, or sinks, under another plate. Oceanic Lithosphere sinks at subduction zones which are usually at convergent boundaries, but at mid-ocean ridges the plates are actually separating not coming together


How do conditions in the open ocean neritic zones differ?

Neritic zones are closer to shore, shallower, and warmer than open ocean zones. They also tend to have higher levels of nutrients and more sunlight penetration, supporting greater biodiversity and productivity compared to open ocean zones.

Where would the temperature of the ocean's surface water is the lowest?

The temperature of the ocean's surface water is generally lowest in polar regions, particularly in the Arctic and Antarctic areas. In these regions, the water can approach freezing temperatures due to the influence of cold air, ice cover, and ocean currents. Additionally, during winter months, the surface water in these areas can become significantly colder than in tropical or temperate zones.
