The metric system was first proposed in 1791. It was adopted by the French revolutionary assembly in 1795. The first practical realization of the metric system came in 1799, during the French Revolution, when the existing system of measures, which had become impractical for trade, was replaced by a decimal system based on the kilogram and the meter.

How are convection current in the mantle and in the oceans similar? How are they different?
Vanyuwa [196]

Hello,


Convection currents in the mantle and in the ocean are similar because they both are responsible for the shaping the Earth's surface. Two forces are behind the movement of Earth's huge land masses. Those forces are convection and gravity.


Convection describes the movement of gasses or liquids due to different temperatures. The convection currents just beneath Earth's crust flow very slowly, causing movement in the plates above them. These currents are different with the fact that they produce different plate movements. Ridge push occurs from the convection currents in the ocean. These occur at mid-ocean ridges, which are elevated higher than the rest of the ocean floor. In contrary, convection causes material in the mantle to flow. Due to combined action of convection currents and gravity, Earth's plates are in constant motion.

The illustration shows one of the ways resources are removed from the deep sea. There are many confusing regulations that limit
Sonbull [250]
The United Nations Conventions on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) stipulates that seabed area, which is not within the landmark of any particular country should be regarded as a common natural heritage. Consequently, any mineral found in such an area can be used by anyone. 

However, because of the abundant presence of sea area, and the way national boundaries often conflict, coupled with the problem of illegal mining practices, such laws are difficult to enforce, and so these regulations are not standardized yet.

Some possible impacts of ilegal seabed mining are:
1. Destabilisation of oceanic systems.
2. It constitutes danger to the organisms living in the hydrothermal vents.
