JENNIFERLIGHT17'S PEER REVIEW
First sentence is clear. Gives a picture of where the continental rise is located in regards to its surroundings. I got a better understanding with what followed the comma in the second sentence ("it represents the final stage in the boundary between continents and the deepest part of the ocean"). Perhaps, I would elaborate on that, because it seems like the essence of what the continental rise actually is. The third sentence is an extra fact that adds to the article, so overall I like how after reading the first paragraph I had enough information and understanding on the topic.

The second paragraph in the article talks about the continental rise's slope, sedimentation etc. Personally, since the article is focused on the continental rise, I would start my sentence with the continental rise. What I mean:

The continental rise, an underwater hill composed of tons of accumulated sediments, is found at the bottom of the continental slope.

This way, the reader will not get confused with which is which, since their names are pretty similar and one might get confused.

Additionally, I would separate the second paragraph into two paragraphs when the article starts analyzing the abyssal plain.

I understand the mentioning of the abyssal plain is essential to the article's coherence, however, it seems to me as if too much information is given on it. Perhaps too much detail might drift the reader away from the topic.

Also, I think making the images bigger would be helpful for better understanding. Since this is a complex topic, I believe it would prove assistive to be able to compare what you're reading to the images next to it. I had to click on the pictures to make them bigger, but once I did, it brought everything together and really helped me understand. Great images!

In no way is the article biased. It presents clear statements and it is very well structured. I really liked the coherence and I found it understandable.

As far as references are concerned, there is only one reference in the article. There are a lot of "citation needed" sections, but I'm sure you have that in mind. I couldn't really access the resource, when I pressed on the link it took me to a page where I had to purchase the PDF, but that might have been on me. I see that source is from a book so that shows reliability.
