Is subduction divergent?

Subduction is a process that takes place at convergent boundaries.


Is subduction common at divergent plate boundaries?

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


Is a stratovolcano a divergent volcano?

No. Stromboli is associated with a subduction zone, which is a convergent boundary.


Is subduction constructive or destructive?

It is neither, because plate is not being made or destroyed. Divergent is constructive. Convergent is destructive. Subduction is constructive.


Is Krakatoa a divergent convergent or transform boundary?

Krakatoa is an convergent boundary with a subduction zone

Which landform would most likely be found at a convergent subduction boundary?

convergent boundary -rift valley divergent boundary -mid-ocean ridge


What is a crustal boundary?

There are 3 types convergent, divergent, and transform boundaries. Convergent collide, divergent move away, and transform boundaries occur when two boundaries pass each other horizontally. The process of subduction is associated with convergent boundaries and tectonic plates play a huge role in these types of boundaries.


What are 2 different convergent boundaries?

Convergent collision and convergent subduction. Convergent collision collides and forms mountains. Convergent subduction subducts and forms trenches.


Which convergent boundaries do not have a subduction zone?

A continent to continent convergent boundary does not have a subduction zone.


Why are divergent boundaries considered constructive while convergent boundaries are considered destructive?

At a constructive (divergent) plate boundary, new crust is being created to infill the gaps caused by spreading plates. At a destructive (subduction-convergent) plate boundary, old, dense oceanic crust is diving into, and becoming part of the mantle.


Define and relate the following to the plate tectonics theory?

There are 2 tectonics theories namely: divergent boundary and subduction zone. The boundary of the plate tectonics where two plates are placed is called divergent boundary while the subduction zone is a convergent boundary where in one plate is subducted on another.
