Subduction zones are formed where tectonic plates converge, typically at deep-ocean trenches such as the Peru-Chile Trench in South America and the Japan Trench in the western Pacific Ocean. At these locations, one tectonic plate is forced beneath another, leading to the formation of a subduction zone.

Do convergent plate boundaries form mountain ranges or subduction zones?

Convergent plate boundaries can form both mountain ranges and subduction zones. Mountain ranges are typically formed when two continental plates collide, leading to compression and uplift of the crust. Subduction zones are formed when an oceanic plate is forced beneath another plate, usually resulting in the formation of deep ocean trenches and volcanic activity.

Why are subduction zones not commonly found at continental-continental boundaries?

because the subduction eventually brings the two continents together.

At what type of boundaries do subduction zones form?

Subduction zones form at convergent plate boundaries where one tectonic plate is forced beneath another plate. This process occurs when one plate is denser than the other, causing it to sink into the mantle and creating a subduction zone.


Which geographic feature is associated with subduction zones?

Subduction Zones are usually known to be part of the Destructive Plate Boundary. The changes that occur in this boundary are: Oceanic crust moves towards the continental crust, but due to the weight of the oceanic crust, the oceanic crust sinks and gets destroyed. This forms deep sea trenches and island archs with volcanoes. As the oceanic crust is forced downwards, the increase in pressure can trigger earthquakes to strike... Basically, the two plates (oceanic and continental) are associated with subduction zones.... Hope this helped ^ ^
