What is a ridge and a trench?
A ridge is a long, elevated landform consisting of a series of hills or mountains that are connected. It is typically formed by tectonic activity, such as the collision of tectonic plates. A trench, on the other hand, is a long, narrow depression in the ocean floor. Trenches are usually formed where one tectonic plate is subducted beneath another, creating a deep and steeply inclined boundary.

What is Philippine trench?
The Philippine Trench (also known as the Manila Trench) is a deep underwater trench that is caused by the collision of two tectonic plates (the Philippine Sea Plate and the Eurasian Plate) east of the Luzon island of the Philippines. The Eurasian Plate is subducting underneath the Philippine Sea Plate at a rate of approx. 16 cm/year. This tectonic activity causes most of the volcanic activity on Luzon, including the cataclysmic eruption of Mt. Pinatubo in 1991.
