Deep ocean trenches are associated with subduction zones where an ocean plate descends into the asthenosphere. The Ocean plate is heavier than a Continental plate which causes the Ocean plate to slide beneath the Continental plate. As the Ocean plate descends, a deep ocean trench is formed.
subduction zones
Deep ocean trenches are typically the evidence of the collision of tectonic plates. This collision is often known as subduction.
Sea Floor spreading has to do with the crust forming at ocean ridges and being destroyed at deep sea trenches.
Ocean trenches are associated with subduction zones, which are convergent plate boundaries.
the Pacific Ocean with a few in the Indian Ocean.
Deep ocean ridges, ocean trenches, mountain ranges, volcanoes, faultlines
Around the western edge of the Pacific Ocean
Deep ocean trenches are associated with subduction zones where an ocean plate descends into the asthenosphere. The Ocean plate is heavier than a Continental plate which causes the Ocean plate to slide beneath the Continental plate. As the Ocean plate descends, a deep ocean trench is formed.
Deep ocean trenches are deep slits in the middle of the ocean. The pressure inside these trenches is unbearable. long, curved valleys along the edges of the ocean basin
Giant squid primarily live in deep ocean trenches.
Trenches
They live in deep trenches in the ocean.
what happens is the ocean floor does not just keep spreading.instead, it sinks beneath deep underwater canyons called deep- ocean trenches
At deep-ocean trenches, subduction allows part of the ocean floor to sink back into the mantle. The ocean floor does not just keep spreading. Instead, it sinks beneath deep underwater canyons called deep-ocean trenches. Where there are trenches, subduction takes place.

Some ocean trenches can be as deep as 10,971 m (35,994 ft).
