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.

This type of water transition or change in phase of matter is known as FREEZING.

Water has molecules that are free flowing and have the ability to collide and bounce against each other, that's why it has that kind of characteristic that it takes the shape of its container.

When these molecules are exposed to lower or colder temperatures, the molecules tend to vibrate and get attracted towards each other, creating a semi-solid or completely solid material. In this example, liquid turned into frost because of the low temperature present within the environment.
