What else can I help you with?
Trenches are the deepest parts of the ocean floor which of the earth's four oceans hs the deepest trenches?
The Pacific Ocean has the deepest trenches.
What are Isolated volcanic peaks on the ocean floor known as?
Isolated volcanic peaks on the ocean floor are known as seamounts. The deepest parts of the ocean are long, narrow features known as deep ocean trenches.
What does deep-ocean basin consist of?
the deep ocean basin consist of the deepest part of the ocean . :)
Is the Atlantic ocean the deepest ocean on earth?
No, the Pacific Ocean has the deepest trenches.
What did scientist learn when they mapped the ocean floor in the 1800s?
there is a mid-atlantic ridge
What is the deepest ocean is the world?
By both overall depth, and by virtue of deepest trenches, the Pacific.
What is the land forms produced underwater caused by the movement of oceanic plate?
Submarine landforms created by the movement of oceanic plates include ocean ridges, deep-sea trenches, seamounts, and underwater volcanoes. These features are a result of tectonic processes such as seafloor spreading, subduction, and volcanic activity.
Which part of the ocean contains trenches and is the deepest?
Yes because they are called deep ocean trenches.
The ocean floor has a wide variety of lansdcapes including?
The ocean floor features diverse landscapes such as underwater mountains (seamounts), deep ocean trenches, mid-ocean ridges, and vast plains known as abyssal plains. These landscapes are shaped by processes such as plate tectonics, volcanic activity, and erosion. The ocean floor also harbors unique ecosystems and seafloor habitats.
What are valleys between the ridges on the ocean floor?
They are called oceanic trenches.
Does theory continental drift state that new ocean crust is formed at ocean ridges and destroyed at deep sea trenches?
No, the theory is that Seafloor spreading state that the new ocean crust is formed at ocean ridges and is destroyed at deep sea trenches.
Compared to ocean crust near deep-sea trenches crust near ocean ridges are?
Compared to ocean crust near deep-sea trenches, crust near ocean ridges is generally younger, thinner, and hotter. Ocean ridges are sites of active seafloor spreading where magma rises to create new crust, while deep-sea trenches are associated with subduction, where older, denser crust is pulled back into the mantle. As a result, the crust at ocean ridges is also less dense and more buoyant than the crust found near trenches.
