Which consequence results when a wooden ship's hull compresses due to extreme hydrostatic pressure at significant depths?

💡 Explanation

At great depths, hydrostatic compressive stress overcomes the elastic limits of the wood, therefore causing catastrophic implosion from shell buckling, because it cannot withstand the pressure. The wooden structure suddenly fails rather than compressing uniformly or increasing buoyancy.
