When two oceanic plates converge, the denser plate will end up sinking below the less dense plate, leading to the formation of an oceanic subduction zone. Old, dense crust tends to be subduction back into the earth.

Answer:
water in the Earth system.
Explanation:
Earth crust refers to the outermost layer or thin shell which makes up the earth such as sedimentary, metamorphic and igneous rocks.
The Earth crust is typically made up of two (2) main types;
1. Oceanic crust: this crust has a thickness ranging from 5 km to 10 km and comprises of denser rocks such as diabase, gabbro and basalt.
2. Continental crust: this crust has a thickness ranging from 30 km to 60 km and comprises of minerals such as quartz, silicate, feldspar, aluminum and less dense rocks such as granite
The term hydrosphere describes one of the Earth's spheres and it includes all of the water in the Earth system. It makes up about 86% of the earth surface.
Answer:
Making territorial claims in Ukraine and the Arctic.
Explanation:
Under Putin, Russia has gradually been returning on track after being in a disastrous situation during the 1990s. Little by little over the past two decades, the country's economy has been rising, a lot of relations have been reestablished, new allies have been found, and the military has strengthened. This all has led Russia to return to its position as a powerful country and as an important player in global affairs.
With the country being in the best situation after the collapse of the Soviet Union, it has shown its territorial appetites in recent times and has not been paying much attention to the protests of the other, mostly Western, countries. A good example is the annexation of Crimea which was Ukrainian territory, but there is also a big chance that Russia will reach out for the eastern part of the country as well. The Arctic region has been a subject of claiming new territory, mostly from Norway, and again Russia has had no sympathy from the pretests by the less powerful country that they are robbing off of its territory. This may go even further in the future toward territories of Belarus and the Baltic states, as well as the Caucasus and Central Asia.
