The deepest trench of the world- ‘The Mariana Trench’ is located in the :

a) Atlantic Ocean

b) Indian Ocean

c) Pacific Ocean

d) Arctic Ocean

Answer: (c)

The Mariana Trench or Marianas Trench is the deepest part of the world’s oceans. It is located in the western Pacific Ocean, to the east of the Mariana Islands.

The trench is about 2,550 kilometres long but has an average width of only 69 kilometres (43 mi). It reaches a maximum known depth of 10.994 km.

The trench is not the part of the seafloor closest to the centre of the Earth. This is because the Earth is not a perfect sphere: its radius is about 25 kilometres less at the poles than at the equator.

As a result, parts of the Arctic Ocean seabed are at least 13 kilometres (8.1 mi) closer to the Earth’s centre than the Challenger Deep seafloor.
