Depth difference between arabian sea, indian ocean
Answers
Answer:
Indian Ocean
The history of the Indian Ocean based on cultural and commercial exchanges dates back to seven thousand years, when a network of trade relations began in the Persian Gulf, the Red Sea, and the Arabian Sea.
Arabian Sea
The Arabian Sea was originated 50 million years ago when the Indian subcontinent collided with the continent of Asia. Most parts of the sea are above 9,800 feet deep. It is interesting to note that the deep water levels and the seabeds of the Arabian Sea are very similar to the land formations we see around. The medieval Arabs called it the Sea of India.

Answer:
Arabian Sea
The Arabian Sea is a region of the northern Indian Ocean bounded on the north by Pakistan, Iran, and the Gulf of Oman, on the west by the Gulf of Aden, Guardafui Channel and the Arabian Peninsula, on the southeast by the Laccadive Sea,[1] on the southwest by the Somali Sea,[2] and on the east by India. Its total area is 3,862,000 km2 (1,491,000 sq mi) and its maximum depth is 4,652 meters (15,262 ft). The Gulf of Aden in the west connects the Arabian Sea to the Red Sea through the strait of Bab-el-Mandeb, and the Gulf of Oman is in the northwest, connecting it to the Persian Gulf
Indian Ocean
The Indian Ocean is the third-largest of the world's oceanic divisions, covering 70,560,000 km2 (27,240,000 sq mi) or 19.8% of the water on Earth's surface.[5] It is bounded by Asia to the north, Africa to the west and Australia to the east. To the south it is bounded by the Southern Ocean or Antarctica, depending on the definition in use.[6] Along its core, the Indian Ocean has some large marginal or regional seas such as the Arabian Sea, the Laccadive Sea, the Somali Sea, Bay of Bengal, and the Andaman Sea.
