What does this suggest about using the Pratt model to explain difference between the elevations of the continents and ocean basi
Olegator [25]

Pratt's hypothesis of isostasy proposed that topography is produced by crustal blocks with varying densities, that terminate at a uniform depth.

<h3>Theories of isostasy</h3>

The Pratt hypothesis, developed by John Henry Pratt, an English mathematician, and an Anglican missionary, supposes that Earth's crust has a uniform thickness below sea level with its base everywhere supporting an equal weight per unit area at a depth of compensation.

<h3>Pratt model </h3>

A model for the lithosphere that accounts for isostatic anomalies by assuming there is a level of compensation that lies at a constant depth everywhere. Below the level of compensation, all rocks have the same density, but above it, density decreases as topographic elevation increases.
