Which of the synonyms below would best describe scary, gorge or canyon in the earth's surface?
A: Cave - a natural chamber in the earth
B: Chasm - a deep crack in the surface of a planet
C: Crater - a bowl shaped depression or dip in the earth
D: Gulf - a wide gap
B. Chasm Think of the Grand CANYON. It's not bowl shaped, it's not a cave, and it's not a Gulf. It's like a huge ant farm, made of a bunch of DEEP CRACKS, thus Chasm.
