Answer: The seafloor exhibit thickest sediment layer near the continents.

Explanation:

In the seafloor the sediments are laid down in the form of strata or layer, in the body of water. Sediments are found to be thinnest near the spreading centers and found thicker away from the ridge.

At the ridge the seafloor accumulates more sand, organic sediments from aquatic plants and animals as the time passes. But the sediments are the thickest near the continents.

Sediments are typically laid down in layers, or strata, usually in a body of water. On the seafloor, sediments are thinnest near spreading centers (young seafloor) and thicker away from the ridge, where the seafloor is older and has more time to accumulate. Sediments are also much thickest near continents.

Why do rainforests have high biodiversity?
Ghella [55]

Answer:

Explanation:

Rainforests have high biodiversity because they are abundant in nutrients, energy and a favorable climate.

Biodiversity is high because the warm and wet consistent climate in tropical rainforests is able to sustain life in all different forms. Soil nutrient is poor in tropical rain forests because the sunlight that is intended to reach the floor of the tropical forest is blocked by the tall and dense trees.

Scientists can't be sure about the early atmosphere and can only draw evidence from other sources. For example, volcanoes release high quantities of carbon dioxide. Iron-based compounds are present in very old rocks that could only have formed if there was little or no oxygen at the time.
