The denser plate

Explanation:

When two plates forms a subduction zone, the denser plate will subduct and dive into the underlying mantle below.

Subduction zone occurs along a convergent margin when two plates of different densities collides.

  • When two plates of different densities collides, the denser plates subduct.
  • This is because the density of the mantle below is less than its own density.
  • Most times, oceanic plates usually subduct during plate convergence.
  • Oceanic plates are denser compared to continental plates.

What is active and passive immunity?

Active immunity is a type of immunity that occurs when the immune system of a person is responsible for protecting them from a pathogen or from an infection.

Passive immunity is a type of immunity that involves the introduction of antibodies from another person or from outside the body of a person.
