D)Subduction

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The features described, namely explosive composite cone volcanoes and deep-ocean trenches, are characteristic of the subduction zones found at convergent plate boundaries. At these boundaries, two plates come together and one plate subducts, or dives beneath, the other plate. This process creates the deep trenches and also fuels the explosive volcanism seen at composite cones.
