Answer:

C. Submarine canyon

Step-by-step explanation:

The feature located nearest to the continent is the submarine canyon.

A submarine canyon is a part of the seafloor.

  • The seafloor spans from the continental shelf, to the continental slope, then continental rise, abyssal plain, abyssal plain and oceanic trench.
  • The Submarine canyon is a steep sided valley cut into the continental slope usually originating from underwater tectonics.
  • Ocean ridge lies far way from the continent. It usually forms at a divergent margin.
  • A rift zone lies within the continent.
