Answer:

A. Continental crust is less dense than oceanic crust.

Explanation:

Earth's crust can be divided into two categories, oceanic and continental. More of the surface is covered by oceanic crust, but because ocean crust is thinner than continental crust, the volume of the latter is significantly greater.

Oceanic crust is also denser than continental crust as it is made up of basaltic rock, whereas it's continental counterpart contains a type of less dense rock called felsic.

Using complete sentences, explain the influence, power, and limits of the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights.
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

The essential value of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, lays in the establishment and protection of individual's fundamental freedoms and rights. Although this document does not have the power to impose any obligations on a domestic level, it has served to bind international law's customs and propel the development of countless treaties, national constitutions, etc. Not losing sight of its limitations we can still see the massive influence it's had, in particular when it came to defining the meaning of these "fundamental freedoms" and "human rights". All members of the United Nations have adopted these igniting principles and commited to further developing the tools to secure and protect them for their citizens.

(Hope this helped you have a blessed day!!)
