Where were the older rocks on the sea floor found?

The oldest layers of sea floor would exist at the bottom of the Marianas Trench, where oceanic plate subduction is occurring. The subducting oceanic plate is less than 200 million years in age.


Is the Marianas trench convergent or divergent?

The Mariana Trench is a convergent plate boundary.


What are three types of convergent boundaries?

Oceanic-continental convergence: Oceanic plates sink beneath continental plates, creating subduction zones and mountain ranges. Oceanic-oceanic convergence: When two oceanic plates collide, one plate is subducted beneath the other, leading to trench formation and volcanic island arcs. Continental-continental convergence: Two continental plates collide, resulting in the uplift of crust and the formation of mountain ranges.


Where is Marianas trench largest canyon in world?

The Mariana Trench is a crescent-shaped trench in the western Pacific Ocean. It is the deepest oceanic trench in the world and the location of the Challenger Deep, which is the deepest point on Earth. It is not a canyon, but rather a trench formed by tectonic plate movements.


What results from an oceanic plate to oceanic plate convergence?

When two oceanic plates converge, one plate is usually forced beneath the other in a process known as subduction. This can result in the formation of deep-sea trenches, volcanic arcs, and earthquakes. As the subducted plate melts and rises, it can lead to the creation of island arcs and chains of volcanoes.

There is no Juan de Fuca Trench. The USGS explains the lack of a trench as due to slow plate convergence at the subduction zone.

What is the movement of oceanic-continental convergence?

In oceanic-continental convergence, the denser oceanic plate is forced beneath the continental plate in a process called subduction. This creates a deep ocean trench and can lead to volcanic activity and the formation of mountain ranges on the continental plate. The collision can also cause earthquakes.
