The greatest rate of pressure/volume change occurs between the depths of:

1) 0-33 feet/0-10 meters
2) 33-66 feet/ 10-20 meters
3) 66-99 feet/ 20-30 meters
4) the rate is the same for each range

Final answer:

The greatest rate of pressure/volume change occurs at the greatest depth, which is 11.0 km in the Marianas Trench near the Philippines.

Step-by-step explanation:

The greatest rate of pressure/volume change occurs at the greatest depth, which is 11.0 km in the Marianas Trench near the Philippines. This is because the pressure in a fluid increases with depth. As explained in Pascal's Principle, pressure in a static fluid depends only on the depth at that point.
