Biology

1005milibars of pressure corresponds to 29.68inches of mercury.

Option D.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Mercury has a density of around 13.6gm/cc. Thus the pressure of inches of mercury will have a huge effect on the value. As far as bar is concerned, it's around the normal atmospheric pressure measured at sea level. Its around 1,00,000 pascals. So from converting a pressure at millibars to inches of mercury, we need to divide the value by a factor of 33.864.

So, pressure in milibars =1005milibars.

So, pressure in inches of mercury = 1005/33.864 = 29.68 inches of mercury.

gregori [183]
An abyssal plain is an underwater plain on the deep ocean floor, usually found at the depths between 3000 and 6000 m. Lying generally between the foot of a continental rise and a mid-ocean ridge, abyssal plains cover more than 50% of the Earth's surface. They are among the flattest, smoothest, and least explored regions on Earth.
