Answer:

Option D, Between converging oceanic and continental plates

Explanation:

Subduction zones/boundaries are formed in the regions in which one tectonic plate slips below the other tectonic plates. These tectonic plates could be a pair of oceanic/continental plates or one oceanic and one continental plate.

In a converging process, two tectonic plates move towards each other until they collide thereby causing slipping of one plate below the other. While in a diverging process, the two tectonic plates move away from each other and hence there is no chance of formation of subduction zone.

Thus, option D is correct.

Which statement best explains how to draw a cladogram that includes the rynchosaur?
romanna [79]

The correct answer is option B

A cladogram can be defined as a diagram that uses cladistic to show the relation among the organisms. Many evolutionary trees can be made from a single cladogram but the cladogram cannot be considered as the evolutionary tree because it does not shows that how the ancestors of the species is related to the descendants.
