Question

Where do subduction zones often occur?

Answer 1

The correct answer is option d. where two continental plates are colliding.

The subduction is a process, in which the colliding of one continental plate to another causes the movement of one plate inside other. The movement of one plate inside the other one occurs due to the gravity in the mantle.

The region formed by the process of subduction is known as the subduction zone.

Answer 2

D: Where two continental plates are colliding, creating a convergent boundary. One plate slips under the other because of convection currents in the mantle.
