subduction zones, ex. maranas trench
Trenches are typically found at the boundaries of tectonic plates, where one plate is being subducted beneath another. The most well-known trenches are oceanic trenches, found underwater near subduction zones where one tectonic plate sinks beneath another.
The plate boundary that causes mountains to form is called a convergent boundary.
Convergent boundaries
Destructive plate boundary.
The plate boundary at which plates collide or come together is called a convergent boundary. At convergent boundaries, one plate is typically forced beneath the other in a process known as subduction. This collision can lead to the formation of mountain ranges, deep ocean trenches, and volcanic activity.
A subduction zone forms arcs of volcanoes and deep-ocean trenches. In this type of plate boundary, one tectonic plate is forced beneath another, generating intense geologic activity that results in volcanic eruptions and the formation of deep trenches in the ocean floor. This process occurs where two plates converge.
The type of boundary that causes shearing is transform boundary.
A destructive boundary, also known as a subduction zone, is a type of tectonic plate boundary where one plate is being forced beneath another plate. This process can lead to the formation of deep ocean trenches, volcanic arcs, and earthquakes.
Convergent Boundaries.
Trenches are found in a divergent boundary.
the mid ocean ridges cause the magma to form at a convergent plate boundary.
A convergent boundary forms when an oceanic plate is pushed under a continental plate. This process, known as subduction, can result in the formation of deep ocean trenches, volcanic arcs, and earthquakes.
