3 turn the shoe box over so that the opening is down.
Draw a cross section of the ocean floor.
In the space below draw an approximate continuous cross section side view of the ocean basin from point a to point b from lower left to upper right.
The ocean surface is indicated by a dashed line.
On the floor plan drawing above at the upper and lower left there are two a s surrounded by circular icons with an arrow.
Cross section of the north atlantic ocean basin from the u s.
To understand the methods used to sound measure ocean depths to covert a series of ppp osition and depth measurements into contours isobaths on a bathymetric chart to visualize a sea floor landscape using a bathymetric chart to visualize and draw a cross section of sea floor topography using a chart.
The sea floor can be subdivided into three major features.
2 trim as indicated the pages labeled left portion of side of shoe box and right.
This graphic shows several ocean floor features on a scale from 0 35 000 feet below sea level.
The ocean surface is indicated by a dashed line.
Label the divergent boundary.
The cross section below shows the tectonic plates making up an ocean floor and two continents.
To create a cross section first draw a line on your floor plan that cuts through a section of the house for which you need to show cross section detail.
Label the convergent boundary.
Glue these two pages together to form the cross section through the earth.
The diagram above is a drawing of the bottom profile of the north atlantic ocean basin from the u s.
These icons indicate that the construction drawings will contain a detailed cross section for this slice of the house.
Plate boundaries in oceans below is a cross section of the ocean floor and nearby land showing the surface features.
The arrow indicates in which direction the cross section looks.
The following features are shown at example depths to scale though each feature has a considerable range at which it may occur.
Label the ocean trench.
Use the previous side view drawings and figure 2 for reference and use arrows to indicate the relative direction of plate motion.
All the best ocean floor drawing 40 collected on this page.
1 use a shoe box with approximate dimensions 6 5 x 13 by 5 deep.
Label the ocean ridge.
On graph paper draw the horizontal and vertical axes from your cross section.
Sea floor spreading model directions.
Two continental shelves abyssal plain choose one sland ocean ridge ocean trench use the diagram to answer the following questions about features found on the ocean floor.
The length of the horizontal access should be as wide as the distance between points a and b.
Label the mountains volcanoes on land.
Your vertical axes need to use a scale distance between each increment that will not exaggerate the height of the cross section.
