Question

When plates move toward each other at oceanic-oceanic or oceanic-continental convergent boundaries, the process ofusually takes place. This happens as one plate sinks under another plate, down into Earth's. The general area where this process is occurring is called a. As the descending plate bends downward, a long, steep, narrow depression in the seafloor where one plate sinks under another plate may develop; this is called a(an). These features result in some of the parts of the seafloor.

ANSWER
- subduction
- mantle
- subduction zone
- ocean trench
- deepest

Answer 1

When plates move toward each other at oceanic-oceanic or oceanic-continental convergent boundaries, the process of subduction generally takes place. This takes place as one plate sinks under another plate, down into Earth's mantle.

The general area where this process is occurring is known as a subduction zone. As the descending plate bends downward, a long, steep, narrow depression in the seafloor where one plate sinks under another plate may develop; this is called an oceanic trench. These features result in some of the deepest parts of the seafloor.
