You Are An Oceanographer And Want To Map The Ocean Floor On The East Coast Of The Philippines. As You Do Your Study, You Notice That There Is A Portio

You are an oceanographer and want to map the ocean floor on the east coast of the Philippines. As you do your study, you notice that there is a portion in the ocean floor which is relatively much deeper than the rest. What most likely is that deeper part?

a. linear sea
b. oceanic ridge
c. rift valley
d. trench

 

Answer:

As an Oceanographer who is working to map the ocean floor off the eastern coast of the Philippines, I would certainly notice the portion which is much deeper than the rest.

I would then conclude that this part is a trench, so the answer would be letter D.

Explanation:

The Trench that we find along the eastern coast of the southeast Asian nation is known as the Philippine Trench. We can find it along the western side of the Philippine plate in the Pacific Ocean. It can be more than 10,500 meters at its deepest portion. The Philippine trench ranks as the third deepest submarine trench and is surpassed only by the Tonga and Mariana trench with the latter being the deepest.

Deforestation And The Burning Of Fossil Fuels Have Impacted Global Temperatures And Increased Atmospheric Co2 Levels. How Has This Affected Ocean Curr

Deforestation and the burning of fossil fuels have impacted global temperatures and increased atmospheric CO2 levels. How has this affected ocean currents and acidified the ocean? What are some consequences of ocean acidification?   Answer & Explanation: It affects our seawater by making it more acidic and causes carbonated ions to be relatively less abundant because our ocean absorbs 30% of CO2 in the atmosphere and when the level of CO2 increases, the CO2 in the ocean also increases which results to a series of chemical reactions that increases the production of hydrogen ions. Ocean acidification may lead to the destruction of marine life because the increase in the acidity of the seawater makes it harder for corals to build it skeletons which is particularly important beacuse they provide a home for many other sea creatures.
