Question
in this illustration, which site shows a subducting plate?
a
b
c
d
Brief Explanations
Subduction occurs when one tectonic plate moves under another and sinks into the mantle. Site C shows an oceanic plate being pushed beneath another plate, with magma rising from the subducted material, which matches the subduction process. Sites A, B, and D depict other tectonic features (mid-ocean ridge, hot spot, and rift basin respectively) that do not involve subduction.
