Answer:

A. True

Explanation:

Oceanic crust, while older than plateaus of rocks found far away from volcanic activity, it is much thinner, denser, younger, and of different chemical composition than continental crust. Continental crust is typically 30-50 km thick, whilst oceanic crust is only 5-10 km thick.  On the other hand, plateaus of rocks are formed from volcanic activities and are of more recent occurrence than oceanic crust.

Water is the basis of life, it supports life, and countless species live in it for all or part of their lives. Freshwater biomes supply us with our drinking water and water for crop irrigation.
