Question

(03.03 MC) The movement of tectonic plates in two locations is described below: Location A: Tectonic plates collide and one plate moves over the other while the other plate is pushed deep into the mantle Location B: Tectonic plates slide past each other Which statement is most likely correct?

Volcanic eruptions may occur in both locations.
There is no chance of earthquakes in the two locations.
Mountains may form in Location B but not in Location A.
Subduction happens in Location A but not in Location B.

Answer 1

Subduction happens in Location A but not in Location B. so answer D

Answer 2

Subduction happens in Location A but not in Location B.

Step-by-step explanation:

• As the plates collide and the one plate moves over the other plate this leads to the formation of a subduction zone and the various process of mountain building takes place on the other side of the late as it is pushed to the deep mantle and the place where the tectonic plates are neither destroyed nor created is a transform plate boundary that slides past one another and thus earthquakes take place.
