      Decent attempt, improve the presentation. Mention subheadings in the answer, also label the diagram properly, you have missed some parts..example-continental shelf.
      Introduction is fine, content is also okay..mid oceanic ridges can be explained better with some examples..also some features are missing such as atolls, submarine canyons etc
      Other points are fine.
      Conclusion is good.
      Keep writing. 🙂

      Nice attempt. Diagrams are good and properly labelled. Introduction is fine, explanation of shelf, slope etc are fine.
      Try to include more examples in the answer.
      Some relief features like seamounts, guyots, atolls, submarine canyons etc are missing.
      You can include them in the answer.
      Conclusion is fine.
      Keep practicing. 🙂
