What is an ocean to ocean plate boundary?
A tectonic boundary where two oceanic lithospheric plates are either moving away from one another and new crust is formed, or moving toward each other, in which the more dense oceanic plate will subduct beneath the less dense plate.
What is the study of lithospheric plates?
plate tectonics
What is the downward movement into the asthenosphere of a lithospheric plate?
Subduction.
In the process of subduction a lithospheric plate descends into the?
mantle
Which plate boundary is one lithospheric plate sliding under another?
Destructive/convergent
How is a lithospheric plate like a line of moving grocery carts?
I guess because they are both a straight line and they each move back and forward

I guess because they are both a straight line and they each move back and forward
What lithospheric plate is the largest?

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.
What is the definition for lithospheric plate?
The definition of Lithospheric Plate is:) Lithospheric plates are regions of Earth's crust and upper mantle that are fractured into plates that move across a deeper plasticine mantle. Also Qwertyuiopasdfghjklzxcvbnm has nothing to do with it.

How was the cascade range formed?
The Cascade Range was formed by the subduction of the Juan de Fuca plate beneath the North American plate. This process created volcanic activity along the subduction zone, leading to the formation of the Cascade volcanoes. The range extends from northern California to British Columbia, with peaks such as Mount Rainier and Mount Hood.
