Notes:

Explanation: Continental Margins: These form the transition between continental shores and deep-sea basins.

They include continental shelf, continental slope, continental rise and deep-oceanic trenches.
Of these, the deep-oceanic trenches are the areas which are of considerable interest in so far as the distribution of oceans and continents is concerned.

Abyssal Plains:

These are extensive plains that lie between the continental margins and mid-oceanic ridges.
The abyssal plains are the areas where the continental sediments that move beyond the margins get deposited.
