Solution
The correct option is C Deep sea plain/Abyssal Plain
An abyssal plain is an underwater plain on the deep ocean
floor, usually found at depths between 3,000 metres and 6,000 metres. Lying between the foot of a continental rise and a mid-ocean ridge, abyssal
plains cover more than 50% of the Earth’s surface. They are among the flattest,
smoothest and least explored regions on Earth.
