Are there canyons on the Earth?
Yes, there are canyons on Earth. Canyons are deep valleys with steep sides, often carved by rivers or erosion over time. Some famous canyons include the Grand Canyon in the United States and Kings Canyon in Australia.
Are canyons only formed in hot places?
No, there are canyons in cold places and underwater.
Explain the relationship between trenches and seafloor spreading?
1. New sea-floor is created by the upwelling of magma at mid-ocean spreading centers; old ocean floor is destroyed by subduction at deep sea trenches. 2. The area is a subduction zone. Magma from underground comes up and destroys that crust. That crust is then recycled and the magma cools and hardens. That creates new land, that creates the trenches. Seafloor spreading is in the ocean and happens with convection currents. That is the relationship between. 3. As new seafloor is formed at mid-ocean ridges, the old seafloor is pushed down into trenches at subduction zones.
What are Mars canyons?
Are all canyons created by water?
No, not all canyons are created by water. While many canyons are indeed formed by the erosion caused by rivers or streams, other canyons are created through other geological processes such as tectonic activity, volcanic activity, or glacial activity. These canyons can be formed by processes like faulting, volcanic eruptions, or the retreat of glaciers.
What are deep under water canyons called?
Trenches
How are canyons and trenches alike?
canyons and threnches are alike because they are both deep and they love each other
How are land canyons an ocean trenches alike?
figure it out ur self stupid people these days
What happens to the ocean floor at the deep ocean trenches?
what happens is the ocean floor does not just keep spreading.instead, it sinks beneath deep underwater canyons called deep- ocean trenches
What are other names for the deep ocean floor?
The Hadalpelagic Zone (The Trenches). Life can still be found there, though this area is mainly canyons.
What is the difference between a ocean ridge and trench?
Trenches are formed by divergent plates, Whereas Ridges are formed by plate in collision.
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

What are Deep underwater canyons called?
The oceans floor doesn't just keep getting wider instead the ocean floor plunges into deep underwater canyons called deepocean trenches.Where ever deep ocean trenches are there is subduction.
Why does deep-ocean trench occur?
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.

Features that look like canyons in the ocean floor are called?
They are called canyons or trenches, depending on what and where they are. Canyons cut back into the continental shelves or are scoured channels along the shelf surface, some developed during glacial phases when the sea-level was far lower and some of what are now sea-ways, like the English Channel, were river valleys. Trenches are particularly associated with subduction zones, where the ocean floor plate is being bent down and forced below the continent.
