Rudik [331]3 years ago
4 0

Convection currents are the result of differential heating. Lighter (less dense), warm material rises while heavier (more dense) cool material sinks. It is this movement that creates circulation patterns known as convection currents in the atmosphere, in water, and in the mantle of Earth.

Deep trenches in the ocean mark places where A) one plate slides under another, returning older crust to the mantle. B) plates p
astraxan [27]

Answer:

Option (A)

Explanation:

Trenches are usually defined as deep and narrow depressions that are formed along the convergent plate boundaries. These are the region where two tectonic plates move towards each other and result in the formation of a subduction zone, where the denser plate subducts below the less dense one. As the heavier plate goes down, it reaches the mantle and the rocks undergo partial melting.

These trenches are located just above this zone of subduction. It can also be said that the presence of a trench indicates a subduction zone.

One of the famous trenches is the Mariana trench which is present in the Pacific ocean and it has a depth of approximately 11 km from the mean sea level.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).
