What else can I help you with?
What is the opening in the oceanic crust?
Subduction Zone.
Where do volcanic arcs form?
About 150km from a subduction zone.
What is the density to continental to Continental?
They are less dense that is why there is no subduction zone
Does subduction create or destroy oceanic crust?
In a subduction zone the crust is forced inot the mantle where it is eventually melted and destroyed
Is the partially melted zone of earths that carries the crust the lithosphere?
No it is really subduction
Is mount Cleveland a subduction zone?
Moun Cleveland formed as a result of a subduction zone, but is not a subduction zone in and of itself. A subduction zone is a feature that forms volcanoes, not a kind of volcano.
what happens to a convergent boundary?
a subduction zone forms
What forms on overriding plates at a subduction zone?
mountain or volcanoe
What forms when one oceanic plate is forced beneath another plate a. an ocean basin b. an ocean ridge c. a subduction zone d. a rift valley?
C. subduction zone
Which mountain range forms near a subduction zone?
The Andes mountain range in South America is an example of a mountain range that forms near a subduction zone. The subduction of the Nazca Plate beneath the South American Plate has contributed to the uplift and formation of the Andes.
What mountain range forms near a subduction zone?
The Andes mountain range forms near a subduction zone where the Nazca Plate is subducting beneath the South American Plate. This subduction process has resulted in the uplift of the Andes mountains over millions of years.
How a subduction zone forms?
When two plates move together (at least one must be oceanic crust), one will sink beneath the other. The result is that a subduction zone forms between the two plates at the location where they meet.
What forms when one oceanic plate is forced beneath another plate a rift valley an ocean basin an ocean ridge a subduction zone?
A subduction zone forms when one oceanic plate is forced beneath another plate. This process can lead to the formation of volcanic arcs, deep ocean trenches, and seismic activity.
What forms where a oceanic plate begins to move down in a subduction zone?
Convergent Boundaries
The area where a plate descends is a?
subduction zone
What forms when two tectoinc plates collide?
Usually either a mountain range, or a subduction zone.
Which convergent boundaries do not have a subduction zone?
A continent to continent convergent boundary does not have a subduction zone.
