"moho" is the plate boundary between earth's crust and the mantle.
Answer this question… Subduction of oceanic crust beneath continental crust
This type of plate boundary is a convergent boundary where subduction of the denser oceanic slab into the mantle will occur. Because of this it may also be called a destructive margin.
Convergent boundary
Subduction.
how the thin outer crust is floating on the thick liquid mantle, causing the crust to move and form a divergent plate boundary

Answer this question… Subduction of oceanic crust beneath continental crust
This type of plate boundary is a convergent boundary where subduction of the denser oceanic slab into the mantle will occur. Because of this it may also be called a destructive margin.
At a divergent plate boundary the crust is thin. This reduces pressure on the upper mantle, lowering the melting point and allowing some rock to melt.
subduction is the process by which oceanic crust sinks beneath a deep-ocean trench and back into the mantle at a convergent plate boundary.
Mount Etna Was Formed By Destructive Plate Boundaries. This Is When One Crust Is Forced Under Another Crust. It Stands At The Convergent Boundary Where The African Crust Is Being Sub Ducted Beneath The Eurasian Crust. This Causes The Latter To Deform And Forces the Magma Up Into Weak Spots In The Earths Crust (mount Etna) When There Has Become To Much Of A Magma Build Up In The Mantle.
recessive plate boundary
Divergent plate boundary.
Convergent boundary
Crust is destroyed at the convergent plate boundary. This is usually between the oceanic and continental plates. This is where subduction of the more dense crust occurs.
This process is called subduction.
