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.

I need a good simile for a lysogenic infection.
lara [203]
That lysogenic infection looks worse than a dog who got run over by a car!
In all similes there is always the term "like" or the term "as". If you want to do a comic strip, then be creative and funny.
Hope this helps!
