Study the image of a plate boundary. The Asthenosphere is being divided by the Lithosphere on the left of the diagram. Oceanic crust is above the Lithosphere and continues until it reaches the Continental crust on the right. The Lithosphere layer on the right is moving left toward the Lithosphere layer on the left that is moving right and down. Two volcanoes are above the area where the lithosphere layers meet. Which feature is forming? mountain rift valley earthquake island chain

Answer:

On the left of the figure, the Lithosphere is dividing the Asthenosphere. Above the lithosphere, the oceanic crust continues until it meets the continental crust to the right. the right lithosphere layer is migrating left in the direction of the left lithosphere layer, which is travelling right and down.

Explanation:

Step 1: Because oceanic crust is inherently denser than continental crust, it will always subduct beneath the latter when oceanic and continental plates collide. Larger earthquakes and more active volcanoes are frequently linked to convergent borders.

Step 2: A line of volcanoes known as a continental arc is created when an oceanic plate subducts beneath a continental plate, which also generates earthquakes. As one might anticipate, there are several powerful earthquakes and volcanic eruptions where plates intersect. As the oceanic plate reenters the mantle, it melts.

Step 3: At divergent plate borders, seafloor spreading takes place. The mantle's convection currents generate heat that makes the crust more flexible and less thick when tectonic plates progressively drift apart from one another. Less dense material rises, frequently creating mountains or raised seabed regions. The crust eventually fractures.
