The reason for this is because it is closer to water, therefor they have more events that could happen. Also there is a lot of weathering, erosion, and deposition which makes the gulf coast prairies and marshes more susceptible to changes.

Abscission layer is the layer of cutinized parenchyma cells that develops in the abscission zone. The abscission zone form across the base of the plant part, where the break eventually occurs. During the photosyntesis chlorophyll using sunlight produces sugar and storches which are used as food by plant. And sugar accumulate in leaves.
(C.) The layers of the Earth are uniform in thickness
This is untrue. The mantle is far large than the crust and there are other large size differences.
Pros: Might someday cure disease, might someday increase crop yeild, might create things that can be of our use.
Cons: Genetic engineering could cause food allergies, have bad side affects, it could kill animals over time.
I hope this helps.
