Ocean water is most saline in dense seawater.

answer: b. in dense seawater.
Julli [10]3 years ago

The term salinity denotes the total amount of dissolved salts in a liquid sample.  For example, the salinity of the ocean water was much greater than the salinity of the lake water.

Ocean water is most saline  in dense seawater. Correct answer: B

Coastal waters on the other hand in cool, humid areas where fresh water rivers run into the ocean tend to have lower salinity.

How do scientists determine the relative age of rocks?
NISA [10]

Answer:

Super position

Faunal Succession

Crosscutting Relationships

Inclusions

Explanation:

Superposition: The most basic concept used in relative dating is the law of superposition. Simply stated, each bed in a sequence of sedimentary rocks (or layered volcanic rocks) is younger than the bed below it and older than the bed above it. This law follows two basic assumptions: (1) the beds were originally deposited near horizontal, and (2) the beds were not overturned after their deposition.

Faunal Succession: Similar to the law of superposition is the law of faunal succession, which states that groups of fossil animals and plants occur throughout the geologic record in a distinct and identifiable order. Following this law, sedimentary rocks can be “dated” by their characteristic fossil content. Particularly useful are index fossils, geographically widespread fossils that evolved rapidly through time.

Crosscutting Relationships: Relative ages of rocks and events may also be determined using the law of crosscutting relationships, which states that geologic features such as igneous intrusions or faults are younger than the units they cut across.

Inclusions: Inclusions, which are fragments of older rock within a younger igneous rock or coarse-grained sedimentary rock, also facilitate relative dating. Inclusions are useful at contacts with igneous rock bodies where magma moving upward through the crust has dislodged and engulfed pieces of the older surrounding rock.

How does the density of ocean water affect deep currents?
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

Dense water sinks below less dense water. This is the principle that drives the deep ocean currents that circulate around the world. A combination of high salinity and low temperature near the surface makes seawater dense enough to sink into the deep ocean and flow along the bottom of the basins.
