16. Which process(es) cause(s) thick sediment layers to accumulate along the boundaries of continental
taurus [48]

<u>Answer: </u>

The process of thick sediment layers to "accumulate" along the "boundaries of continental and oceanic plates" is called Subduction.

<u>Explanation: </u>

  • During a marine transgression, sea level raises high compared to land level resulting in floods. These are triggered during climate changes, ice-age, isostatic movements.
  • Subduction occurs at the tectonic plates where one plate is moves under another forcing to sink into Earth’s mantle due to the gravitational force.
  • The plates are continental and oceanic in the zone of lithosphere. The rate of subduction is usually seven to 8 centimetres per year.
  • Marine regressions are opposite to transgressions where sea levels fall compared to land levels.
  • Glaciation is the interval of time within an ice-age. The current glacier period is of Holocene.
