How are the Atlantic and the pacific ocean alike?

Answer 1

The Pacific Ocean is the largest ocean in the world at 155,557,000 sq km. Its deepest point is the Mariana Trench (Challenger Deep) at 11,033 metres. The Atlantic Ocean is the second largest ocean in the world at 76,762,000 sq km. It is also the second deepest at the Puerto Rico Trench (Milwaukee Deep) at 8,648 metres.

Answer 2

The overall depth of oceanic abyssal planes is generally the same for all oceans (3000 and 6000 meters).

However the Atlantic is a young ocean and has no destructive boundaries (except the Caribbean area) and therefore does not have the deep trenches (10,911 meters) associated with these that are seen in the Pacific.

The Pacific is much larger (155,557,000 Square Kilometers) than the Atlantic (76,762,000Square Kilometers). However, the Pacific is getting smaller and the Atlantic is getting bigger so things will not be this way for ever.

Answer 3

The Pacific Ocean is deeper. The deepest point in all of the oceans --- the Challenger Deep in the Mariana Trench - lies 10,911 metres (35,797 ft) below sea level in the Pacific Ocean near Guam. The Pacific Ocean's average depth is roughly 4100 meters (approx. 13,500 ft.) The average depth of the Atlantic, with its adjacent seas, is 3,339 meters (10,955 ft); without them it is 3,926 meters (12,881 ft). The greatest depth in the Atlantic Ocean, 8,605 meters (28,232 ft), is in the Puerto Rico Trench.

Answer 4

the Atlantic is 106,400,000 square kilometres and the pacific ocean is 165.25 million square kilometres, therefor the pacific ocean is deeper.
