Rock around a subducting slab is heated to extreme temperatures as a result of sliding friction. Much of the rock eventually melts and enters the convection currents in the mantle.

The oceanic crust (the denser crust) is subducted under the lighter crust which basically means that it goes under the upper crust as they meet so they don't crash into each other like at a collision zone.
Where oceanic crust meets continental crust and earthquakes can occur.
A "subduction zone".
This is known as subduction.
Moun Cleveland formed as a result of a subduction zone, but is not a subduction zone in and of itself. A subduction zone is a feature that forms volcanoes, not a kind of volcano.
Folding, Subduction, Upliftment and Displacement of regions of the earths crust.
A subduction zone and a collision zone are the same place, a collision just happens earlier, when the crusts of the two plates are interacting. Later, when the crust of one plate is being forced under the crust of another plate into the mantle, it becomes a subduction zone.

Subduction Zone.
In a subduction zone the crust is forced inot the mantle where it is eventually melted and destroyed

This is called a subduction zone.
