Answer:

Option (1), (2) and (3)

Explanation:

The subduction zones are created when a denser oceanic plate subducts under a lighter continental or oceanic plate. It forms at the convergent plate boundary. The point above this subduction zone where the depression forms is known as the oceanic trenches. This trenches extends up to a great depth. The subducting plates undergoes partial melting as a result of which the plate melts and the magma rises up towards the over-riding plate forming volcanoes or chain of volcano. This type of plate boundary generates deep focus earthquakes.  

Thus, the correct answer are option (1), (2) and (3).

How does flooding affect rivers?
Olegator [25]
Flooding can affect rivers because river flooding causes things to be picked up from the streets and pulled back into the water. So It affects the water quality and if anything dangerous to the fish and water life gets in the water it will mess up their life system. Hope this helped a little bit. :)
