Questions: Question 67 ot yet answered Points out of 1.00 Flag question The most stable layer, in terms of temperature and density, is the mixed layer. Select one: True False

The answer is False.

Explanation: The mixed layer in the ocean is the upper layer where temperature and salinity are relatively uniform due to the mixing caused by wind, waves, and currents. While it is relatively stable in terms of temperature and density within itself, it is not the most stable layer overall. The deeper layers, such as the thermocline and the deep ocean, tend to be more stable in terms of temperature and density because they are less affected by surface conditions and mixing processes. Therefore, the statement that the mixed layer is the most stable layer in terms of temperature and density is incorrect.
