What else can I help you with?
Does subduction happen at a plate boundary?
Subduction is the process that takes place at convergent boundaries by which one tectonic plate moves under another tectonic plate.
What kind of tectonic plate is the eurasian plate?
The tectonic plate under parts of Europe and Asia is a continental crustal plate.
What is the name of the type of boundary where one tectonic plate slides under another tectonic plates?
The type of boundary where one tectonic plate slides under another is called a convergent boundary. This process is known as subduction, where one plate is forced beneath the other due to differences in density.
Why did the 1985 Mexico City happen?
I guess you mean 'earthquake'. It happened because the Cocos tectonic plate pushed against and slid under the North American plate.
What cities are on tectonic plate boundaries?
Some cities on tectonic plate boundaries include Tokyo, Japan (Pacific Plate), San Francisco, USA (Pacific Plate), Istanbul, Turkey (Anatolian Plate), and Mexico City, Mexico (North American Plate). These cities are at risk of earthquakes and other seismic activities due to their proximity to tectonic plate boundaries.
Which tectonic plate does Tokyo come under?
The North American plate.
What tectonic plate is almost entirely under a sea?
The Pacific Plate is the largest tectonic plate and is covered entirely by the Pacific Ocean.
What tectonic plates are under etna?
Its under the South American Plate
What can form when one oceanic plate subducts under another oceanic plate?
Tectonic
How many tectonic plates are under the Pacific Ocean?
one plate, the pacific plate
What do plate tectonics have to do with earthquakes?
When tectonic plates come together or go under or over each other, forms a volcano. that what tectonic plates do form volcanoes!!! Thank you
When are island arc volcanoes formed?
The island-arc volcanoes are formed from the subduction of an oceanic tectonic plate under another tectonic plate, and often parallel an oceanic trench.
