⦁ What is subduction, and which type of rock subducts?
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:Espero te sirva

Explanation:La subducción es el proceso de hundimiento de una placa litosférica bajo el borde de otra placa, formándose los llamados límites convergentes entre placas. La placa subducida, la que se hunde, suele estar formada por corteza oceánica, más delgada y densa que la continental. La subducción ocurre a lo largo de amplias zonas de subducción que en el presente se concentran especialmente en el entorno del océano Pacífico, en el llamado cinturón de fuego del Pacífico, pero también hay zonas de subducción en partes del mar Mediterráneo, las Antillas, las Antillas del Sur y la costa índica de Indonesia.
