Summary: A continent is a continuous mass of land that geographists regard as a collective region conventionally. There are seven continents (Asia, Africa, North America, South America, Antarctica, Europe, and Australia). Ocean is an extensive saltwater that tops the Earth's surface. This planet has one global sea. However, the oceanographers divide the ocean into five oceans. Those five are Arctic, Southern, Indian, Atlantic, and Pacific. 

What is Continent Mean In Geography?

While learning geography, the term continent must not be a strange word to hear or read. Continents are very close to us as humans. Even when reading this sentence, you are on top of one. We can define a continent as an area of land that ascends above sea level. Some experts also define a continent as a continuous mass of land that geographists regard as a collective region conventionally. The word continent comes from the English noun (continent land) means continuous or connected land. It originated from the Latin words (terra continens).

According to National Geographic, there are seven continents (Asia, Africa, North America, South America, Antarctica, Europe, and Australia). The order of the previous continents is based on their size (from the largest to the smallest). The geology experts said that continents move. It is because the top part of the continents lies on a semifluid layer which enables it to roam. This movement is also one of the causes of why we feel an earthquake. The geologist named this theory as plate tectonics.

What is the Definition of Oceans in Geography?

Do you know that 71% of the Earth's surface is covered in water? We call this water a surface ocean. Ocean is an extensive saltwater that tops the Earth's surface. This planet has one global sea. However, the oceanographers divide the ocean into five oceans. Those five are Arctic, Southern, Indian, Atlantic, and Pacific. There were only four oceans until the early 20th century when oceanographers included the seas around Antarctica as the Southern Ocean. 

97% of the Earth's water is from the ocean. Hence, it has a vital effect as a contributor to the weather, temperature, and food distribution for every living organism. Even though the sea has a crucial role for the Earth, 80% of its area remains undiscovered. The deep ocean is an area that is impossible for humans to explore because of its zero visibility, severe cold temperature, and extreme pressure. However, oceanographers still found various things from the explored sea that benefits humans and other living organisms. 

Why Should We Learn About Ocean and Continents?

When we study geography, we cannot escape the obligation to learn about the continents and oceans of the Earth. As we all know, those two elements cover the planet's surface, so it is unavoidable to master those topics.
