Use the earthquake distribution map and what you know about boundaries to answer the question. a map showing the tectonic plates

of the world. a key shows depth from 0 to 700 by color. 0 is red and 700 is teal. studies have shown that there is a relationship between the type and location of boundaries and the distribution and depth of earthquakes along or near these boundaries. many earthquakes, shown in the map as wide bands, occur along convergent areas. these areas experience varying depths of earthquakes. where would oceanic-oceanic convergence most likely occur? nazca plate converging with the south america plate, forming the andes mountains philippine plate converging with the pacific plate, forming mariana islands in the pacific ocean juan de fuca converging with the north american plate, forming the cascade mountains north america plate converging with the eurasian plate, forming a mid-ocean ridge

The most likely place for an oceanic-oceanic convergence to occur is the philippine plate converging with the pacific plate, forming Mariana islands.

<h3>What is an oceanic-oceanic convergence?</h3>

This refers to when two oceanic plates collide with each other which leads to the heavier plate sinking.

The Philippine plate and the Pacific plates are both oceanic plate so if they converged, this would be an oceanic-oceanic convergence.

Answer:

Here, this can be a starting point for you! :) I hope this helps you out, have a nice rest of your day :)

Trench: very deep, elongated cavity bordering a continent or an island arc; it forms when one tectonic plate slides beneath another. Ridge: underwater mountain range that criss-crosses the oceans and is formed by rising magma in a zone where two plates are moving apart.

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]
Jack Hills, Australia, where rocks were found to contain the oldest known minerals on Earth, a 4.4 billion-year-old zircon.
