Where do deep-ocean trenches occur?
Ocean ridges and deep ocean trenches force slab pull and slab push to facilitate plate tectonics. The ocean ridges raise the ocean floor pushing the plate toward the trench, which is lower pulling the plate into the subduction zone.

What does a slab of crust that is forced down form?
This would depend on the type of boundary: ocean-ocean, continent-continent, or ocean-continent. For ocean-ocean crusts, the slab of crust "forced down" is being subducted. Besides bringing water inside the rock and lowering its melting temperature, this could produce an ocean trench. For continent-continent convergence, the "subducted" plate does not go very far. Because of the buoyancy of continental crust and its lightweight nature (as compared to oceanic crust, which is very dense), the plates tend to buckle and create tall mountain ranges. For continent-oceanic convergence, such as the Western cost of South America, oceanic crust is forced down and is subducted underneath continental crust. This creates mountain ranges as well, and also forms the mechanism from which igneous intrusions can make their way to the surface of the crust.
The sinking of cold ocean lithosphere drives the motions of mantle convection through?
slab-pull and ridge-push
The age of a ocean floor is greatest in subduction zone or?
subducting slab begins to descend beneath another lithospheric slab. Trenches are generally parallel to a volcanic island arc, and about 200 km (120 mi) from a volcanic arc. hence the age of ocean floor is usually greatest in subduction zones
