The correct answer is - Tethys Ocean.
The Tethys Ocean was an ocean that was situated between the European and African continents, through what is now the Middle East and parts of Central Asia, and the northern half of the Indian Ocean. Because of the geologic activities, mainly the movement of the Indian plate towards Asia, and the Alpine orogenesis, the ocean was becoming smaller and smaller, and it started to be divided into smaller pieces, until it totally disappeared. One of the remains of this ocean is the largest lake in the world, the Caspian Lake, often referred to as Caspian Sea, and it can easily be seen that this body of water was once part of a much bigger body of water with saline water, because it itself has saline waters.
Answer:
C. The greater an element's density, the smaller the amount of it found in the crust
Explanation:
The layering of the Earth happened because of the different densities of the elements from which it was made. The denser elements started to sink deeper, the elements with medium density occupied the central part, and the elements with the smallest density remained at the surface. This resulted in the formation of the three basic layers of the Earth, core, mantle and crust. The core is composed of the densest elements, the mantle of the ones with medium density, and the crust from the ones with smallest density.
