Unit 7: The Ocean Floor
... Abyssal Plains: Earth’s Largest Plains The ocean basin, or floor, begins at the bottom of the continental slope. Many plains on the ocean basin are larger and flatter than any found on the Earth’s surface. They are called abyssal plains. Abyssal plains are formed by sediments deposited by turbidity ...
