The topography of the ocean floor will be changing constantly as the submarine moves from the shore and farther away from it.

Explanation:

The ocean floor has its own specific topography, and it can be roughly predicted. As the continental masses, the ocean floor experiences numerous process, both geological and external ones, and all of them contribute to shaping up its topography. Some of the features that can be encountered are:

  • continental shelf
  • continental slope
  • submarine canyon
  • continental rise
  • guyot
  • mid ocean ridge
  • abyssal plain
  • abyssal hill
  • trench

If a submarine starts to move from the coastline further into the ocean, than it will first encounter the continental shelf. After that will come the continental slope and submarine canyons as the elevation sharply drops. Then come the guyots, and toward the central part of the ocean will be encountered the mid ocean ridge. Just before and after the mid-ocean ridge there will be abyssal plains and abyssal hills. If the submarine continues toward the shore, and if there is a subduction zone, then it will encounter an ocean trench as well.

What geographical features create natural boundaries for water to flow toward one ocean or another?
sveta [45]

Answer:

mountain ridges creating natural divides

Explanation:

Natural boundaries acting as controls for water flow and makes them move into oceans are typically mountain ridges. They are geographically called divides.

Water generally flows from regions of high elevations to flat lands and plains.

Oceans the final basin where water from lands flows into. Ocean basins are located at very low elevation and through this potential head, gravity allows all land water to flow ocean-ward.

Mountains are sources of inland water bodies and they control how these rivers flows. Therefore, they act as natural divides that guides rivers into basins.

Which statement contrasts viruses and bacteria?
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

Viruses can replicate inside cells, while bacteria release toxins to destroy cells.

Explanation:

Viruses and bacteria are both considered microorganisms that can be pathogens. Bacteria are singled celled organisms, where as viruses are non-cellular. Therefore, viruses are sometimes considered non-living, or "on the edge of life"

Viruses consist of (at the minimum) a genome surrounded by a protein coat. To replicate, they have to insert their genome into a host cell. This is another reason they are sometimes considered non living.

In contrast, bacteria can release toxins but do not replicate inside cells.

Therefore, the answer is viruses can replicate inside cells, while bacteria release toxins to destroy cells.
