What are the features of the deep ocean basin?
Abyssal Plain,Ocean Trench,Seamount,and Mid-Ocean ridge
What is the flat part of the ocean floor called?
The flat part of the ocean floor is called the abyssal plain. It is a smooth, flat region that lies between the continental rise and the mid-ocean ridges.
What are four main features of the deep ocean basins?
They are: Continental Shelf Continental Slope Abyssal Plain Ocean Deeps
What is the difference between a ocean trench and ocean abyss?
An abyss is intense cold, 0.6 C to 3.5 C, no light, and lots of pressure.A trench is a boundary between two lithospheric plates.

What is a huge muddy valley that cuts through portions of the abyssal plain?

Abyssal hills are found on the seafloor between?
Abyssal hills are found on the seafloor between abyssal plains and oceanic ridges. They are typically smaller in size and are formed by volcanic and tectonic processes, providing an uneven topography in the deep ocean. Abyssal hills can also be areas of increased seismic and volcanic activity.
