Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

The ''Mariana Trench'' can be found in the western ''Pacific Ocean'' which is nearly about 200 kilometers east of ''Marian Islands''. It is considered as the "deepest trench in the world". It is crescent-shaped canyon of about 2,550 km and an average width of 69 km.  

It is true that mariana trench is an example of a deep ocean canyon and it is formed by the fusion of sub-merging of the Eurasian plate and the Philippine Plate. Not all trenches are as deep as Mariana Islands. The descend part of the Marian is called Challenger Deep and it covers most of the southern part of trench.

Answer:

As explained below.

Explanation:

  • As the sedimentary and igneous and metamorphic rocks are distinct from each other as they appear on the landscape but show similar internal properties and thus allowing us to recognize them from a distance.
  • <u>Sedimentary Rocks range from shake sandstone to limestone and conglomerate. While Metamorphic i.e foliated being Slate, Phyllite, Schist, and Gneiss, etc. While the Nonfoliated Metamorphic rocks  are Quartzite and Marble</u>.
  • Rocks revolve in there set rock cycle forming distinctive and newer rocks over the geologic time scale of earth. As each rock type is altered with force to produce the fro example a basalt rock when subducted and could be merged with the mantel to form in the water cycle.
  • As these are called secondary changes in the evolutionary phases of rocks which then can<u> transition into metamorphic rocks through the process of mountain building in the orographic belt</u>s.  
  • As a result, other rocks are recrystallized to form a sedimentary rock in its next phase which is unstable and subject to weathering. Transitions deeply impact the chemical and physical properties of rocks.
