Multiple Choice

What is subduction?

1
Subduction is when tectonic plates remain stationary and do not interact.
2
Subduction is the process of one tectonic plate being forced beneath another.
3
Subduction refers to the process of tectonic plates sliding past one another.
4
Subduction is the movement of tectonic plates away from each other.
