Mid-ocean ridges (eg. Mid Atlantic Ridge) are formed at constructive plate boundaries, where magma is welling up between two diverging plates and forming new plate materiel. Trenches (eg. Marianas Trench) are formed at destructive plate boundaries where an ocean plate is being subducted below a continental plate.Chariotmender Â· 8 years ago.id Atlantic Ridge) are formed at constructive plate boundaries, where magma is welling up between two diverging plates and forming new plate materiel.

The ocean trenches are narrow topographic depressions in the sea. These trenches form the deepest points in the ocean and are the lowest points on earth. These trenches are formed at a particular place of plate boundary which is known as subduction zone.It happens to form when a plate in ocean hits another ocean plate or it strikes with continental plate.ow when one plate hits another plate or continental plate in the ocean then the denser plate between the two of them sinks in the mantle. The place where this plate sinks will create a deep trench on that spot of ocean.
