Deep trenches are most likely to be found in the western Pacific Ocean, generally the arc between Tonga and the Philippines.
What else can I help you with?
Deep-oceanic trenches are most abundant around the rim of the?
Deep-oceanic trenches are most abundant around the rim of the Pacific. Deep ocean trenches are surficial evidence for sinking of oceanic lithosphere into the mantle at a subduction zone.
How deep are deep sea trenches?
all most 7 miles
What living thing on Earth is most abundant?
The smaller, the more abundant - probably, bacteria, germs, uni-celled organisms, ants, grass/weeds ... You name it!
Where do the most sediments from the continents settle on?
The majority of sediments from continents settle in the oceans, especially in areas close to the coastlines where rivers deposit large amounts of sediment. These sediments can accumulate in continental shelves, deep sea trenches, and submarine canyons.
In which ocean are most of the deep-sea trenches located?
Most of the deep-sea trenches are located in the Pacific Ocean. These trenches are formed by the subduction of tectonic plates, where one plate slides beneath another, creating deep underwater chasms. The Mariana Trench, the deepest known trench on Earth, is located in the Pacific Ocean.
How are valleys and trenches alike and how do they are different?
Unlike deep sea trenches which are found in areas where one tectonic plate slides beneath another undersea canyons are found along the slopes of most continental margins the submarine canyons for example tend to have steeper side slopes much higher gradients and considerably narrower floors. thats how they different
Which regions are thought to be the most level place on earth?
The Abyssal plains.

Are deep ocean trenches mostly located in the middle of ocean basin?
No, most ocean trenches (Japan, Mariana, Tonga, South Sandwich, Puerto Rico) are located along the margins of the oceans.
Which basin contains many deep sea trenches?
The Pacific Ocean basin contains many deep-sea trenches, such as the Mariana Trench, which is the deepest known point in the ocean. These trenches are formed by the subduction of tectonic plates, creating some of the most extreme environments on Earth.
This layer of the earth has a thickness of 5 miles?
the thinnest parts of the oceanic crust. most at a subduction zone in the deep ocean trenches.
What are the two most abundant element by mass found in the Earth?
The two most abundant elements by mass in the earth's crust are oxygen and silicone. The crust of the earth typically runs between 20 and 25 miles deep from the surface.
