Be careful when interpreting this diagram and others like it because in order to show the various features clearly the vertical axis is exaggerated in this case by about 200 times. The ocean floor is called the abyssal plain.
Explorations after 1950 revealed the true complex nature of the ocean floor. Ocean floor topography features. There are 26 oceanic trenches in the world. The following features are shown at example depths to scale though each feature has a considerable range at which it may occur.
This study is extensive and it has been established that the ocean floor has similar features of mountains and valleys as on the earth.
