The oceanic lithosphere consists of the upper part of the Earth's crust that is submerged beneath the oceans. It is primarily made up of basalt, but can consist of other forms of sediment deposited by rivers or currents; the basalt feature exists due to the oceanic lithosphere's creation via divergent tectonic activity. The continental shelf is a portion of the crust that is of higher elevation than the rest of the ocean due to its connection to the less dense continental lithosphere. The continental slope, therefore, is the portion of the crust where the continental shelf decreases in elevation as it meets the denser oceanic lithosphere. Abyssal plains are portions of the lithosphere far from spreading centers - they consist of rocks older than those near rifting centers. Due to the coolness of the plate and their distance from rifting centers, abyssal plains are some of the lowest continuous portions of the lithosphere (cool rock is denser and thus sinks to a lower elevation). Since they are very much inactive, abyssal plains are coated with sediment and are very, very flat.
After reaching North America, humans migrated to South America.
I would consider them hypocrites because they were fighting for their religion, but they did not adhere to the religion themselves. One of the major rules of this religion was not to kill and yet they did.
Contour lines determine the steepness of the land by how close they are together. Generally, contour lines rise to a particular scale (e.g. a line for every ten metres), therefore, if the contour lines are closer together then the height of that particular area has risen more steeply than if the contour lines are further apart where the steepness has increased more gradually.
