Answer:

B. Subduction occurs

Explanation:

At convergent boundaries plates comes together. Most convergent margins are typified by the presence of special zones known as the subduction zones where a plate goes beneath the other.

There are three types of plate interactions:

  • Divergent plate boundaries in which plates move away from one another. In this margin, mid-ocean ridges and rifts usually form.
  • At transform margins, plates glide past one another. Series of earthquakes are notable in these zones.
  • At convergent margins, plates collide with one another. The dense plate goes under the lighter one. This is known as subduction.

So, we can see that subduction is one of the prominent features at a convergent margin.

What is a convergent plate boundary?
polet [3.4K]

Answer: What is a convergent plate boundary?

Explanation:

A convergent boundary is an area on Earth where two or more lithospheric plates collide. One plate eventually slides beneath the other causing a process known as subduction. The subduction zone can be defined by a plane where many earthquakes occur, called the Wadati–Benioff zone.
