Answer


<h2>Trenches</h2><h2 /><h2>Explanation</h2>

A subduction zone is the largest wreck scene on Earth. These lines indicate the crash within two of the planet's tectonic plates. The plates are pieces of crust that slowly move across the planet's cover over millions of years. Where two tectonic plates meet, if one or both of the plates are oceanic lithosphere, a subduction zone will form. An oceanic plate will soak back into the mantle. Remember, oceanic plates are made from mantle material at midocean ranges.
