deepest area of Ocean, Mariana Trench which is located in the South Pacific Ocean. Some parts of
ocean contain fresh ice which is safe to drink and use. It is also reported that Ninety percent
volcanic related activity is occurred in the ocean. We can also found forty thousand three
hundred and ninety (40,390) miles which is almost equal to 65,169 kilometer long mountain
ranger underwater, called as the Mid-Oceanic Ridge.
It is hard to believe but ocean is blue because of sun. Ocean also covered 5 percent of United Stated
land. We talked about Mariana Trench as its pressure of water at the bottom is about 8 tons per
square inch. After the survey, it is also estimated that three million of shipwrecks are available
on the ocean surface. Hundreds of museum can also be found under ocean. If we talk about the
proteins, Ocean provide 14 percent of earth’s protein. Few years ago, some sounds were
reported and heard from three thousand miles away under the sea which largest sound is made
by iceberg, named as “The Bloop”.
