The continental shelf is a gently sloping feature found at the edge of a continental landmass going seaward from the coast. Rivers that empty into the sea can produce currents that are strong enough to erode the material that builds the shelf. When this occurs channels or submarine canyons are formed. These canyons are deep and dark as no light can penetrate these regions. The canyons often lead out to sea towards the edge of the shelf.

Galina-37 [17]

The answer is; D

Carbon dioxide and methane are potent greenhouse gases. They cause heating of the lower atmosphere, by trapping sunlight, that results to climate change. Due to the higher melting and boiling temperatures of phosphorus, it is rare that it occurs as gas in room temperatures. Phosphorus, therefore, does not pose a great threat of climate change.
