The density of one tectonic plate is heavier than the other. The lighter plate 'floats on top of the heavier one, which is slowly forced down into the earth.
It is known as subduction.
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.
Subduction is a process that takes place at convergent boundaries.
The principle behind this phenomenon is known as plate tectonics, where lithospheric plates float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere. When one plate subducts beneath another, it forms a convergent boundary. This process can lead to the formation of deep ocean trenches, volcanic arcs, and seismic activity.

A synonym for subduction is decrease.
That is the correct spelling of "subduction."
The process in which the ocean floor sinks into the mantle is called subduction. This occurs at convergent plate boundaries, where one tectonic plate slides beneath another. Subduction zones are associated with deep-sea trenches and volcanic activity.

subduction zone
Subduction. A subduction trench.
It is called subduction and only occurs in oceanic to oceanic or oceanic to continental plate collisions.
In science class we learned about subduction
The Marianna Trench is great example of subduction.
