Under subduction,ocean trench would also be formed.
If it is an continential plate and oceanic plate subduction,fold mountain may be found.

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.

Which of the following scale is the largest?
Gwar [14]

Answer:

1 : 25,000 is the largest scale.

Explanation:

1 cm represents 2 km; is not correct because this is actually the smallest of the scales presented, meaning that 1 cm on the map is equal to 200,000 cm on the ground.

1 : 50,000; is not correct because this is the second-largest scale from the options.

1 : 25,000; is correct because it is the largest scale, with 1 cm on the map representing 25,000 cm on the ground. The smaller the scale, the larger it is.

1 : 100,000; is not correct because it is the third-largest, with 1 cm on the map representing 100,000 cm on the ground.
