Why there are two high tide bulges on the earth at any given time despite only having one moon.
SIZIF [17.4K]

Thats because on the side of the moon that's facing the Earth, gravity is more powerful on this side, thus, the moon's gravity pulls the ocean's water in this direction, which is called a bulge. On the other side of the moon, inertia is the one that's powerful, this also creates a bulge. These two forces creating bulges at the same time is what causes multiple high tides.

Hope this helps!

Which part of the seafloor contains the thickest sediment layer?
SSSSS [86.1K]
Sediments are typically laid down in layers, or strata, usually in a body of water. On the seafloor, sediments are thinnest near spreading centers (young seafloor) and thicker away from the ridge, where the seafloor is older and has more time to accumulate. Sediments are also much thickest near continents.

11. The dominant sediment type found along the equatorial Pacific Ocean is ______.
timurjin [86]

Large ocean basins are the only places where pelagic sediments are found. The main types of deposits are globigerina ooze and red clay.

<h3>What common dominant sediment type in Pacific Ocean? </h3>

Diatom oozes are only found in a ring that spans the North Pacific Ocean and an almost continuous belt that surrounds Antarctica.

Nutritional requirements of diatoms and are more common in the warmer seas towards the equator.

As a result, siliceous radiolarian ooze predominates in the equatorial coastal Pacific, while siliceous diatom ooze predominates in the polar regions.

Therefore,  The dominant sediment type found along the equatorial Pacific Ocean is biogenous
