Answer:

Explanation:

Discontinuities are changes that seismic waves present in their trajectory and speed because the properties of the medium they pass through become different. That is what has allowed geologists and geophysicists to know the internal structure of the planet and deduce its composition.

Specifically, the discontinuity represented by the end of the crust and the passage to the upper mantle is the Mohorovicic discontinuity, or as it is briefly called the Moho.

The depth at which it is found varies greatly because the thickness of the crust is very different depending on whether it is oceanic crust (about 7 km) or continental crust (up to 100 km under the great mountain ranges).

After eight weeks of running through its delta, the fresh waters of the Colorado River meets the high tides of the briny sea.

Colorado’s nutrient-rich freshwater used to mixed with the Upper Gulf’s salty tides to create the perfect water chemistry and nursery grounds various water creatures of great commercial and cultural importance to the region, this was prior to the construction of big dams and diversions of the 20th century.
