Answer:

Why the majority of species live on earth and not in the sea is one of the top questions of science. The following are some of the reasons some scientists quote:

- plants play a major role; plants need light for photosyntesis, there is little sun in the ocean except for shallow coastal areas; so, land is more productive than the cold, dark depths of the ocean;

- the co-evolution of plants and insects has also played a role in the birth of so many new species; the vast majority of plants on Earth are flowering plants and 80 percent of all species are insects.

d1i1m1o1n [39]

An alluvial fan is a triangle-shaped deposit of gravel, sand, and even smaller pieces of sediment, such as silt. This sediment is called alluvium. Alluvial fans are usually created as flowing water interacts with mountains, hills, or the steep walls of canyons.


Also, Marine sediment, any deposit of insoluble material, primarily rock and soil particles, transported from land areas to the ocean by wind, ice, and rivers, as well as the remains of marine organisms, products of submarine volcanism, chemical precipitates from seawater, and materials from outer space.
