The Pacific Plate is the largest tectonic plate and is covered entirely by the Pacific Ocean.
Its under the South American Plate
Tectonic
one plate, the pacific plate
The island-arc volcanoes are formed from the subduction of an oceanic tectonic plate under another tectonic plate, and often parallel an oceanic trench.
The tectonic plates involved in Japan's 2011 earthquake were the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate. The earthquake resulted from the Pacific Plate subducting beneath the North American Plate along the Japan Trench.
The tectonic plate under parts of Europe and Asia is a continental crustal plate.
The North American plate.
Its under the South American Plate
Subduction is the process that takes place at convergent boundaries by which one tectonic plate moves under another tectonic plate.
Technically, yes. At convergent boundaries, an oceanic plate will subduct, or sink, under a continental plate and melt back into the mantle. An example of this is the Juan De Fuca plate, which has almost been entirely subducted under the North American Plate.

this is called tectonic plates moving, this causes earthquakes and if under water it's called a psunami
Japan is under three tectonic plates
The Himalayas were lifted by the subduction of the Indian tectonic plate under the Eurasian Plate,
