The Abyssal plains makes up a majority of the ocean floor worldwide.

<h3>What is the Abyssal plains?</h3>

This refers to the flat seafloor area which is measured at an abyssal depth [10,000 to 20,000 feet]) that is generally adjacent to a continent.

These plains are formed from blanketing of uneven surface of oceanic crust by fine-grained sediments, mainly clay, silt etc.

Hence, the Abyssal plains makes up a majority of the ocean floor worldwide.
