The hadal zone is the deepest zone it is deeper than the abyssal by alot. The abyssal zone only reach 4,000 miles in depth the hadal zone can reach 6,000 miles to 7,000 miles in depth.
Trenches are deep ocean features of subduction zones.
In terms of biomass, deep ocean habitats are similar to Benthic and Abyssal Zones.

Deep Ocean Zones
The order of ocean zones, from the surface to the deep ocean, are the epipelagic zone, mesopelagic zone, bathypelagic zone, abyssopelagic zone, and hadalpelagic zone. Each zone has unique characteristics based on depth, light availability, and the organisms that thrive there.
Deep ocean trenches are associated with tectonic plate subduction, where one tectonic plate is forced beneath another into the mantle. This process leads to the formation of deep-sea trenches, which are the deepest parts of the ocean floor. Trenches are often sites of intense seismic activity and can also be locations where volcanic arcs form.
Key zones in an ocean biosystem include the surface zone where most sunlight penetrates, the twilight zone where light diminishes, and the deep zone where no sunlight reaches. Organisms in these zones include phytoplankton, zooplankton, fish, marine mammals, and deep-sea creatures like anglerfish and grenadiers.
The deep sea zone, is one.
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.
there are three major zones , Surface Zone, Thermocline Zone, The Deep Zone
This process occurs at subduction zones, where one tectonic plate descends beneath another plate into the asthenosphere. Subduction zones are typically associated with deep ocean trenches and volcanic arcs.
