Q. With reference to the general features of ocean bottom relief, consider the following statements:
  1. Continental Slope connects the continental shelf and the ocean basins.
  2. Deep sea plains are the flattest and smoothest regions of the world.
  3. Guyot is a volcanic mountain on the seabed with its flat tip over the surface of the sea.
Select the correct option from the codes given below:

Answer: Only 1 & 2
Notes: Continental slope connects the continental shelf to ocean basins. Deep sea plains are indeed the flattest and smoothest regions of Earth. A guyot is an underwater volcanic mountain with a flat top, but its summit lies well below the sea surface, not above it. Thus, statements 1 and 2 are correct, while statement 3 is incorrect.
