Choose the best answer. magma forms at subduction zones because: a. the lithosphere is thinned at convergent boundaries allowing hot mantle rocks to melt due to decompression. b. the earth is hotter at convergent boundaries. c. friction from the subducting plate against the overriding plate melts the rocks. d. volatiles released from minerals in the subducting plate lower the melting temperature of hot mantle rocks above them.

Select any/all of the following that are true statements about convergent plate boundaries. convergent boundaries are where two plates move toward each other. new oceanic plate (oceanic lithosphere) is created at convergent boundaries. convergent boundaries that have subduction occurring provide a "pull" force that contributes to plate motion. oceanic plates can be destroyed at convergent boundaries due to subduction.

How is continental crust different from oceanic crust? oceanic crust is thinner and more likely to sink. continental crust is more dense and lighter. oceanic crust is thicker and more dense. continental crust is thicker and more likely to sink. look at this section of a tectonic map. which statement describes what is happening at the plate boundary? an oceanic plate is subducting. two continental plates are colliding. the seafloor is spreading. two plates are sliding past each other. at which type of boundary do lithospheric plates collide? contour boundaries gravitational boundaries convergent boundaries convection boundaries according to the theory of plate tectonics, how do two plates interact to form earth's largest mountain ranges? collide create new plates move apart scrape past each other how can mountain formation be described according to the theory of plate tectonics? as any two plates meet at a fault line boundary, mountains are formed. as two continental plates collide along a convergent boundary, mountains are formed. as a continental plate and an oceanic plate come together at a divergent boundary, mountains are formed. as two continental plates move past each other at a transform boundary, mountains are formed.
