Hello There!
Subduction occurs at destructive plate boundaries. It is when a heavier/denser oceanic plate gets pushed down into the mantle by the less dense continental plate. The point where the oceanic plate subducts is called the subduction zone.
Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck :)

The encounter occurred as a result of European explorers crossing the Atlantic Ocean in 15th century. They unexpectedly met native Americans.
I would like to think it's the Middle East and North Africa, which is a part of Africa, Asia, and to some extent, Europe.
Answer:
Options (2), (3), (4), and (7)
Explanation:
The factors that affects the number of deaths and the amount of damage caused by an earthquake depends upon the following things-
(1) Magnitude- The magnitude of an earthquake controls the amount of damage and loss of people. A high magnitude earthquake can cause greater damage in comparison to a low magnitude earthquake.
(2) Distance- The distance also plays an important role. When the distance from an earthquake is short, then the places nearby, at a certain radius gets affected very badly. Whereas, the places that are at a far distance, are not affected much by the earthquake.
(3) Depth- The depth of an earthquake depicts the epicenter distance. Shallow depth earthquakes are responsible for massive destruction. But, the deep focus earthquakes does not affect much unless it has a much stronger magnitude.
(4) Material that is used for construction of buildings- The type of materials that is used for construction purpose also is important. Weaker materials are easily broken down resulting in the collapsing of building. So, hard and resistant rock must be selected in order to maintain the stability of the buildings.
Thus, the correct answers are options (2), (3), (4), and (7).
