Question

Q: Elaborate the difference among the three parts of the edge of the ocean i.e., continental shelf, continental slope and continental rise.

Answer 1

The shelf usually ends at a point of increasing slope (called the shelf break). The sea floor below the break is the continental slope. Below the slope is the continental rise, which finally merges into the deep ocean floor, the abyssal plain. The continental shelf and the slope are part of the continental margin.
