How do creatures bear high pressures in the oceans?
They have evolved to deal with it by exerting an equal amount of pressure outwards as the average amount of pressure that is pressing down on them from above. Humans have done the same, since we are bearing the weight of the entire atmosphere but never notice! Internally, we are exerting the same pressure outwards to balance it. Certainly this is not as much as at the bottom of the ocean, but without this mechanism we would be crushed.
What is themeaning of hydrosphere?
(Meteor.) The aqueous vapor of the entire atmosphere. 2. (Phys. Geog.) The aqueous envelope of the earth, including the ocean, all lakes, streams, and underground waters, and the aqueous vapor in the atmosphere.

How is the earth's atmosphere unlike an ocean?
The earth's atmosphere has a moon the ocean does not have a moon.
How much of the ocean stores the same amount of energy that if found in the atmosphere?
The top 10 feet of the ocean stores the same amount of energy as the entire atmosphere. This is because water has a high heat capacity, meaning it can absorb and store large amounts of heat energy compared to air.
Why is the ocean important to earth?
because heat exchange between the oceans and atmosphere drive atmospheric circulation ove the entire planet modify air temperatures.
How many feet under the ocean make one atmosphere?
One atmosphere is equal to the pressure exerted by a column of water 33 feet (10 meters) high. This means that being 33 feet under the ocean would result in a pressure equivalent to one atmosphere.
What is Major source of energy that powers the convection currents in the atmosphere and ocean?
Vertical convection in both the ocean and atmosphere is caused by uneven HEATing.The source of energy for convection in the ocean and atmosphere is heating from the sun.
Did Thor drink the entire ocean in Norse mythology?
Yes, in Norse mythology, Thor once drank from a horn that was connected to the ocean, but he did not drink the entire ocean.
Does a sunken ship sitting on the ocean floor have a buoyant force on it?
Yes, a sunken ship on the ocean floor experiences a buoyant force pushing up on it that is equal to the weight of the water displaced by the ship. This buoyant force helps to keep the ship in place on the ocean floor despite its weight.
Which factor do you think has a stronger effect on climate the atmosphere or the ocean?
atmosphere
