Explanation:
plate margin (plate boundary) The boundary of one of the plates that form the upper layer (the lithosphere) and together cover the surface of the Earth. Plate margins are characterized by a combination of tectonic and topographic features: oceanic ridges, Benioff zones, young fold mountains, and transform faults
Tidal ranges will be greatest when the Earth and the Moon are at their closest distance.
The Moon with it's gravitational field, pulling force, causes the water on Earth to rise, on the part faced towards the Moon, and to retreat, on the part of the Earth that is not faced towards the Moon. The closer the Earth and the Moon are, the bigger the influence from the Moon and the Earth's surface waters, thus the bigger the tidal range.
Explanation:
Layers that are less dense, such as the crust, float on layers that are denser, such as the mantle. Both oceanic crust and continental crust are less dense than the mantle, but oceanic crust is denser than continental crust. This is partly why the continents are at a higher elevation than the ocean floor.
