The two main types of Lithospheric plates are oceanic plates and continental plates what happens along a convergent boundary between an oceanic plate and a continental plate
The two plates push against each other producing a fault block mountains
Pressure builds up causing earthquakes to occur in the middle of the ocean
The oceanic plate is subducted beneath the continental plate forming a subduction zone
The continental plat is subducted beneath the oceanic plate forming a subduction zone
The correct answer is:
- The oceanic plate is subducted beneath the continental plate forming a subduction zone
This process can result in the formation of oceanic trenches, volcanic arcs, and volcanic mountains on the continental plate. It can also lead to the generation of seismic activity and earthquakes.
