What else can I help you with?
How many trenches does the Atlantic ocean have?
there are three ocean trenches in the Atlantic Ocean
Where does the sediment on the abyssal plain come from?
It comes from sea mounts and ocean trenches.
Trenches are the deepest parts of the ocean floor which of the earth's four oceans hs the deepest trenches?
The Pacific Ocean has the deepest trenches.
What ocean has many deep valleys or trenches?
Trenches
Where do giant squids live in deep oceans trenches or mid ocean trenches?
Giant squid primarily live in deep ocean trenches.
Where are deep ocean treches formed?
Deep ocean trenches are formed at convergent plate boundaries, where one tectonic plate is subducted beneath another. This process typically occurs at the edges of oceanic and continental plates, leading to the creation of steep, elongated depressions in the ocean floor. These trenches are often associated with volcanic activity and earthquakes due to the intense geological interactions at these boundaries. Examples of major ocean trenches include the Mariana Trench and the Tonga Trench.
What results from a convergent boundary?
A convergent boundary results in the collision of two lithospheric plates, leading to the formation of mountains, deep ocean trenches, and volcanic activity. Subduction zones can also occur, where one plate is forced beneath the other into the mantle.
What are the valleys under the ocean called?
They are called trenches.
What type of tectonic plate boundary occurs when two plates are getting pushed together, resulting in the formation of mountain ranges and deep ocean trenches?
When two tectonic plates are pushed together, it forms a convergent boundary. This boundary leads to the creation of mountain ranges and deep ocean trenches.
Deep ocean trenches are surficial evidence for?
plate tectonics and the process of subduction. They are formed where one tectonic plate is forced beneath another, leading to the creation of the deep trenches in the ocean floor. This process is associated with the movement of Earth's lithospheric plates.
Where are trenches located?
in the ocean!
Where are ocean trenches around the world?
There are 26 oceanic trenches in the world: 3 in the Atlantic Ocean, 1 in the Indian Ocean, and 22 in the Pacific Ocean.... and more in the process!For more about ocean trenches visit the website I got this great information from:http://www.physicalgeography.net/fundamentals/10p.html
