Solution

The correct option is C Abyssal plains
In the ocean floor, the continentel rise merges with the abyssal plains or the deep sea plains. The plains reach out from the continental rise to the mid-oceanic ridges. These are the flattest and smoothest regions of the world. These plains are covered by a thick layer of sediment, made up of clay, silt, or sand that are carried by rivers.
