What else can I help you with?
What is it called when one plate is pushed under another plate as the collide?
subduction boundary!!!
What is the plate boundary for unzen?
The plate boundary for Unzen volcano is the subduction zone where the Philippine Sea Plate is being subducted beneath the Eurasian Plate. This subduction zone is part of the larger convergent boundary between the Philippine Sea Plate and the Eurasian Plate.
What plate boundary is reclus volcano located on?
I think the plate boundary is in the subduction zone.
What boundary is it called when an oceanic plate descends beneath a continental plate?
It's called destructive plate margin/boundary, or convergent plate margin though this term applies to all plate margins where two plates are moving towards each other (such as continental + continental or oceanic + oceanic).
Is a subduction zone a type of convergent boundary?
Yes, a subduction zone is a type of convergent boundary where one tectonic plate is forced beneath another plate.
What kind of plate boundary is the North American Plate and the Caribbean plate?
It is a subduction zone.
At which plate boundary is one lithospheric plate sliding under another?
The kind of plate boundary where one lithospheric plate slides under another is a convergent boundary. This process is called subduction.
Which boundary will you find a trench in the sea floor?
A destructive plate boundary (WITH a subduction zone!)
What type of plate collision does not result in subduction of one plate under the other?
A divergent boundary does not result in the subduction of one plate under the other.
Is mount Pinatubo on a constructive or destructive plate boundary?
Mount Pinatubo is on a destructive plate boundary; it is above a subduction zone
What type of plate boundary is Mount St. Helens?
subduction
Define and relate the following to the plate tectonics theory?
There are 2 tectonics theories namely: divergent boundary and subduction zone. The boundary of the plate tectonics where two plates are placed is called divergent boundary while the subduction zone is a convergent boundary where in one plate is subducted on another.
