<u>ANSWER:</u>

Oceanic lithosphere is destroyed when it is subducted at a focalized plate boundary and constrained into the mantle where it dissolves.

<u>EXPLANATION:</u>

Oceanic lithosphere is the topmost layer of the oceanic part of a tectonic plate.

It is made of two crust, the upper crust of oceanic made out of "pillow lavas", and the lower oceanic crust, made out of gabbro, troctolite, and ultramafic cumulates.

The crust overlies the uppermost and cemented layer of the mantle.

Figure RHOM is a rhombus. Line segment R O and Line segment H M are the diagonals of the rhombus, as well as angle bisectors of

aniked [119]

Based on the figure RHOM being a rhombus and the angles that are formed, a true statement on Angle MSR is that It must be a right angle.

<h3>How is Angle MSR a right angle?</h3>

Lines RO and HM are drawn as diagonals and so will intercept at point S and divide the rhombus into 4 isosceles triangles.

With angle MSR starting from one end and going to the center and then to another end, it forms a right angle at point S as shown attached.
