The oceanic crust is denser than the continental crust.
Also, the oceanic crust consists mostly of basalt.
What is the oceanic crust made of?
The topmost layer of the tectonic plates' oceanic part is called the oceanic crust. It is made up of two oceanic crusts: the upper crust, which contains pillow lavas, and the bottom crust, which is made up of troctolite, and ultramafic cumulates. The crust sits on top of the hard mantle's topmost layer.
Dark-colored rocks named basalt and gabbro make up the majority of the marine crust. It is lighter-colored rocks called andesite and granite that make up the continental crust, which is thinner and denser. Because of its low density, continental crust "floats" high above the viscous mantle, generating dry land. It develops as magma rises to fill the space between divergent tectonic plates and is consumed in subduction zones.

I’m not an expert but I’d say B
Answer:
- covers and lines body surfaces
- minimal intercellular substance
- cells are densley packed together
- cells rest on basement membrane
- simple (single line of cells) and stratified (multiple layers)
- squamous (oval like shape), cuboidal (cube shape), columnar (long rectangle shape)
- vascular (tissue doesn't have its own blood supply)
Explanation:
Hope this helps!
The number of producers is more than consumers and top carnivores in ecosystem. for example:- in the food chain of grass--goat--man,atleast 90% of energy is pasted to other level and 10% will be stored at that level it self.
grass goat man
50/100 40/80 30/60.
as we human beings depend on plants and animals for our food for our whole life we need atleast 100 numbers of small plants for one week.
Answer:
Because loess is deposited from the atmosphere it provides an important geologic archive of past atmospheric circulation that can be used to test atmospheric circulation models
