Question

1. During an oceanic plate convergence, the plate will sink

Answer 1

Answer:

A good answer should contain the following:

1. denser

2. subduction

3. hot spots

4. earthquakes

5. An underwater hot-spot volcano occasionally erupts, and the lava solidifies into an island. However, the plate that lies above the hot spot continues to move due to slab pull and ridge push, so the stationary volcano will be in a different location when it erupts again. This forms a new island, and the process may continue.
