What occurs when two plates collide and one of the plates dips below the other?
It is called subduction. When subduction occurs one plate slips beneath the other and sinks into the Earth's mantle and creates a trench.
What type of boundary is made when plates collide?
continental plates meeting form fault lines
When does subduction occur?
Subduction is a process that occurs when two oceanic plates pull apart
When plates collide what forms above the subduction zone?
mountais
What zone formed where two oceanic plates collide?
zone of subduction
What occurs when sea plates collide with continental plates?
subduction
what is place where subduction occurs?
Where two plates collide
When two oceanic plates collide it creates?
when two oceanic plates collide they create a deep-ocean trench, at deep-ocean trenches subduction occurs.

What forms where two oceanic plates collide?
subduction zone
Where two plates collide and one goes on top?
Subduction.
When plates collide what forms above the subduction zone?
mountais
What will happen when stress builds up in a tectonic plate and the plates collide?
When that happens a earthquake is produced.
What zone formed where two oceanic plates collide?
zone of subduction
What subduction zone?
Subduction is when two plates collide, and one moves underneath the other, or subducts. The denser one is the one that subducts. Subduction is caused by the collision of two plates.
