What may happen to the leading edge of plate as it continues to move downward?
The edge of the plate will heat up and become part of the molten mantle.
What is the plate that contain the most hot spots?
Probably the pacific Plate. The permanent hot spots are revealed by chains of volcanic islands. The chain itself reveals the direction the plate is moving.
What do you think may happen to leading edge of plate a as it continues to downward?
As the leading edge in forced down it is heated up and becomes part of the molten magma below.
Plates involved with Himalayas?
The Himalayas are still growing because the Indian plate continues to ram into the Eurasian Plate.
What is the direction of the plate and how does this compare to the trend in direction of the island chain?
The pacific plate moves towards the northwest. the plate moves the older volcanoes with it and so the hot spot produces new volcanoes.

In which direction is the indo-australian plate moving?
The Indo-Australian plate moves Northeast as the Pacific Plate moves around it in a Northwest direction as if rotating.
What direction do plate tectonics move in?
They don't move in a specific direction. Every plate moves in it's own direction and sometimes they can change directions.
What kind of motion occurs at a transform plate boundary?
The motion created is, 1 plate moves in one direction, while the second plate moves in the opposite direction.
What direction do the convergent plate move?
It depends on which plate tectonics you are talking about. Each plate has its specific direction of movement. All plate tectonics move in different directions.
Plates involved with Himalayas?
The Himalayas are still growing because the Indian plate continues to ram into the Eurasian Plate.
