What is the difference in origin between deep-sea muds and oozes?

Deep-sea muds are primarily composed of fine-grained terrestrial material and are transported to the ocean floor by rivers or wind. Deep-sea oozes, on the other hand, are composed mainly of the calcareous or siliceous remains of microscopic marine organisms, such as foraminifera and diatoms, that accumulate on the ocean floor over time.


The ocean floor is hard to get to Deep-sea organisms have been difficult to study. How do I combine these two sentences to make a correct one sentence?

Deep-sea organisms have been difficult to study because the ocean floor is hard to get to.


How do ocean ridges and deep-sea trenches support the theory of sea floor spreading?

Ocean ridges and deep-sea trenches support the theory of sea floor spreading through the process of plate tectonics. At ocean ridges, new oceanic crust is formed as magma rises and solidifies, pushing the existing crust apart. Deep-sea trenches are areas where old oceanic crust is being subducted back into the mantle, completing the cycle of sea floor spreading. This continuous movement of crust at ridges and trenches provides evidence for the theory of sea floor spreading and the movement of tectonic plates.
