Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When moving from a continental landmass out to sea, the first relief feature encountered is the continental shelf. This is followed by the steep continental slope, which connects the continental shelf to the abyssal plain. The continental rise is next, which marks the transition from the continental crust to the oceanic crust. Therefore, the correct order of continental and ocean basin relief features encountered is continental shelf, continental slope, continental rise, and abyssal plain, which is represented in choice C.
