The correct answer is D. The deepest parts of the oceans, located near the continents, are the oceanic trenches.
Explanation:
The ocean trenches are large depressions at the base of the seabed, which constitute the deepest parts of the Earth. Of these, the Mariana Trench, located in the Pacific Ocean to the east of China, is the deepest, being approximately 11,000 meters deep.
These trenches are formed by the activity of tectonic plates, specifically when one plate moves below the other and by the force exerted a depression is generated in the seabed, followed by a chain of volcanic islands at a close distance.
The distribution of fold mountains, as seen in figure 1, are mostly located around areas of tectonic plates surrounding various continents. For example, the Pacific plate, which runs along North America contains a long region of folded mountains along the coast.
