Underwater mountains are called "seamounts," while underwater valleys are referred to as "submarine canyons." Seamounts can rise significantly from the ocean floor, often forming volcanic peaks, while submarine canyons are typically carved by erosion and currents, creating deep, steep-sided features on the ocean floor. Together, these formations contribute to the complex topography of the ocean basin.
