Q

Destructive Plate Boundaries C/O

A

● Denser oceanic plate subducts
below the continental.
● The plate subducting leaves a deep ocean trench.
● The oceanic crust is melted as it subducts into the asthenosphere.
● Explosive, high pressure volcanoes
erupt through the continental plate,
known as composite volcanoes.
● Fold mountains occur when
sediment is pushed upwards during
subduction.
