There is no formation of volcanoes in the convergence between __________.

• A. two oceanic plates

• C. oceanic and continental plates

• B. two continental plates

• C. volcanoes

• B. trenches

• D. faults

Subduction is illustrated in which of the following?

• A. convergent plate boundary

• C. divergent plate boundary

• B. transform fault boundary

• D. subducting plates

• C. converging oceanic plates

• B. diverging plates

• D. plates sliding past each other

• C. Transform fault

• B. Divergent

• D. Both convergent and divergent

Which of the following happens when plates diverge or move away from each other?

• A. The crust is destroyed.

• C. Earth’s size changes because mountains are added on the earth’s surface.

• B. New crust is produced because magma rises, then cools off and turns into solid.
