Answer 2

Answer: Continental rise.

Step-by-step explanation:

• The continental rise found underneath the ocean is a representative of the final stage in the boundary that exists between the lowest part of the ocean and the continents.

• It is located between the continental slope and the abyssal plain and contains silts, sands, muds, and sediments.

• It is a part of the continental margin which also contains the continental shelf and the continental slope. This continental slope merges into a gradual incline which is the continental rise.
