Explanation:

An oceanic basin is the land surface under an ocean that includes the topography under the water. The ocean floors can be divided into four major divisions:

The Continental Shelf

The Continental Slope

The Deep Sea Plain

The Trenches

1) Continental Shelf

The continental shelf is the stretched margin of all continent occupied by comparatively shallow gulfs and sea.

2) Continental Slope

The continental slope links the continental shelf and the ocean basins.

It starts where the bottom of the continental shelf abruptly drops off into a steep slope.

Canyons and trenches are seen in this region.

3) Deep Sea Plain

Deep-sea plain is gently sloping areas

These are the flattest and flattest areas

4) Oceanic Deeps or Trenches

Trenches are the deepest parts of the oceans

.

The trenches are comparatively steep-sided and have narrow basins
