What happens to the earths crust at a subbduction zone?
In a subduction zone, an oceanic plate moves under another plate (whether continental or oceanic). Sometimes pressure builds up, and earthquakes occur.
What happens when an oceanic plate digs into earths hot interior?
an volcano is formed
What happens when the oceanic plate moves to the side and the oceanic plate slides past the continental plate?

Is there any place on earth where materiel from the surface moves into earths interior and some of it melts?
Yes. Such areas are called subduction zones. They develop where two tectonic plates converge and at least one plate is made of oceanic crust. The denser oceanic plate sinks into the mantle.
Where can you find minerals other than earths crust?
the oceanic plate
What are happening to the earths plates in Japan Trench?
The pacific oceanic plate is sinking beneath conential plate
What happens when an oceanic plate and a continental plate rub together?
tsunamis and earthquakes
What happens when an oceanic plate collides with a continental plate and sinks?
When an oceanic plate collides with a continental plate, the denser oceanic plate is forced beneath the continental plate in a process called subduction. This creates a deep oceanic trench. As the oceanic plate sinks, it heats up, melts, and forms magma that rises to the surface, leading to volcanic activity.
What happens when a plate of oceanic crust collides with a plate of oceanic crust?
The oceanic plate is made of denser (and thinner) rock than the continental crust, so the oceanic plate gets subducted (pushed underneath) where it descends and gets melted by geothermal heat.
What is plate tectonics nature of earths interior?

What happens when a plate of oceanic crust collides with a plate of Continetal crust why?
the oceanic crust slides down and burns in the mantle and forms a volcano
What happens at oceanic-oceanic subduction?
The plate with cooler, denser crust sinks under the other plate, forming a trench. There, the oceanic crust sinks down back into the mantle.
