The deepest earthquakes occur were?
In Subduction zones.
Why do volcanoes form above subduction zones?
magma forms in mantle above slab
Where is andesitic magma found?
Andesite can be found around volcanoes with magma of intermediate composition, usually near subduction zones.
Would the most violent earth quacks be associated with spreading centers or subduction zones?
subduction zones
What kind of plate boundary forms sea trenches?
Ocean trenches are associated with subduction zones, which are convergent plate boundaries.
What forms at a subduction zone?
Volcanic arcs and oceanic trenches commonly form at subduction zones.
What types of boundaries do subduction zones form?
This forms on the plate tectonic boundaries.... particularly the convergent plate boundries.
What is the zones places where the seafloor is forced under continents to drift?
Subduction zones are where the seafloor is forced under continental plates.
What is the area that creates volcanic mountains?
There are two areas where volcanic mountains often form. They are subduction zones and hot spots.
The deepest earthquakes occur were?
In Subduction zones.
Why do volcanoes form above subduction zones?
magma forms in mantle above slab
What can result from the action of plates at a converging boundary?
moderate earthquakes, volcanoes, formation of mountains and subduction zones
Where is andesitic magma found?
Andesite can be found around volcanoes with magma of intermediate composition, usually near subduction zones.
Where are the most explosive volcanoes subduction zones or rift zones?
Explosive volcanoes are most common at subduction zones.
Would the most violent earth quacks be associated with spreading centers or subduction zones?
subduction zones
What deep ocean feature form at subduction zones?
Trenches are deep ocean features of subduction zones.
How were the Andes mountains range the Himalayas and the island of japan formed differently?
The Andes mountains and the islands of Japan are both formed by subduction zones which was caused by volcanoes. The Himalayas were formed by convergent plate boundaries but no subduction zone. Instead the plates collided and there was uplift causing the mountains.
