Tonga Trench

Target entity: Tonga Trench
Context triple: [Pacific Ocean, containsFeature, Tonga Trench]

• A. Puerto Rico Trench
  The Puerto Rico Trench is a deep oceanic trench in the western Atlantic, marking the boundary between the Caribbean and North American tectonic plates and containing the region’s greatest ocean depths.
• B. Mariana Trench
  The Mariana Trench is the deepest known oceanic trench on Earth, located in the western Pacific Ocean near the Mariana Islands.
• C. Aleutian Arc
  The Aleutian Arc is a major volcanic island chain and subduction zone stretching from Alaska toward Russia, forming part of the tectonically active northern boundary of the Pacific Ocean.
• D. Charlie-Gibbs Fracture Zone
  The Charlie-Gibbs Fracture Zone is a major deep-sea transform fault system in the North Atlantic Ocean that offsets and disrupts the continuity of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge.
• E. Juan de Fuca Plate
  The Juan de Fuca Plate is a small oceanic tectonic plate off the Pacific Northwest coast whose subduction beneath North America drives significant volcanic and seismic activity in the region.
• F. None of above. chosen
• G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
