Scenario
Imagine you could walk from the east coast shore of the United States, all the way to the west coast of Africa (red line in the picture below). What features would you encounter along the way?
- Draw a quick sketch of what your traveled path might look like. What would you see on the ocean floor?
- Submit a picture of it to this discussion board by using the “insert->image” tool. This could be done electronically (on an ipad/tablet) as long as it is still a hand sketch. I will not grade you solely on your artistic abilities. Just do your best to draw what your path might look like in terms of the terrain you would cross, elevation change, what flora you might see, what fauna you might see, etc.
- Additionally, include in your discussion board post a short explanation (3-4 sentences) of what you think your pathway would look like. You are completing this assignment under the assumption that you have no prior knowledge of what the floor of the ocean looks like, so there are no right or wrong answers here! Let’s just see what you got!
A path you could take is marked by the red arrow in the image below to help you visualize your path, but feel free to imagine your own journey
