Answer:

Option C, Older

Explanation:

Thick & thin sediments  are formed on old and younger crust respectively. The sediments formed in the oceanic ridge are young  and hence their thickness is less than the thickness of sediments in the continental regions. Also the continental regions are near to lithogenous sediment, therefore they consists of thick sediment deposits formed since ages.
