Ooze on the ocean floor is formed from the remains of which of these?
dead organisms
What happens when an oceanic plate moves under a continental plate?
Subduction occurs and oceanic trench is formed.
When are island arc volcanoes formed?
The island-arc volcanoes are formed from the subduction of an oceanic tectonic plate under another tectonic plate, and often parallel an oceanic trench.
When are island-arc volcanoes formed?

Is a new oceanic crust formed at a transform fault boundary?
No. New oceanic crust is formed at a divergent boundary. A convergent boundary neither creates nor destroys crust.

How a trench formed?
a trench is formed when 2 oceanic plates collide
What formed when lava cools and crystallizes on top of oceanic crust?
it becomes part of the oceanic crust
How were the abyssal hills formed?
Abyssal hills are formed by stretching oceanic lithospere.

No. New oceanic crust is formed at a divergent boundary. A convergent boundary neither creates nor destroys crust.
What landform will be formed at this type of convergent plate boundary?
Continental /Oceanic Crust is being formed.
How is the lava formed insind a volcano?
When an oceanic plate and a continental plate collide, it forms a volcano. The oceanic plate subducts underneath the continental plate. As the oceanic plate slides underneath, a magma chamber is formed. This magma chamber is what feeds the volcano.
Where are oceanic crust and lithosphere formed?
At the mid-ocean ridges.
What is the new oceanic crust formed by?
Magma leaking in from the mantle.
