A subduction zone forms in response to a collision between two tectonic plates of certain types. The collision is between two oceanic plates or a continental plate colliding with an oceanic plate. The colder, more dense plate, is forced to move under the less dense plate (subduction), and flows into the layer of the mantle called the asthenosphere.
Subduction zones are regions where oceanic lithosphere descends into the asthenosphere. They occur because the subducting lithosphere has a greater density than the underlying asthenosphere.
because certain things happen to make it happen.
It occurs because if there were to much ocean floor the continents will collide

In Subduction zones.
Subduction boundaries
They occur at convergent boundaries where subduction is occurring.
The subduction
It can occur in a subduction zone.
In Subduction zones.
No, hotspot volcanoes do not occur along subduction zones. They occur when plates pass over mantle hot spots.
Where crust is destroyed
For sure.
No

Convergent Boundaries!
Subduction doesnt occur at divergent boundaries, but rather they are found at convergent boundaries.
