PLEASE HELP WILL FAN AND MEDAL Where is a trench most likely to occur? A. transform plate boundary between oceanic plates B. transform plate boundary between continental plates C. divergent plate boundary in a continental plate D. convergent plate boundary involving an oceanic plate

OpenStudy (gottennis121):

First, do you know what a trench is?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes.

OpenStudy (misssmartiez):

What is a convergent boundary?

OpenStudy (misssmartiez):

http://geology.com/nsta/convergent-plate-boundaries.shtml So the answer would be?...

OpenStudy (misssmartiez):

Trenches are formed by subduction zones along the _____ boundary.

OpenStudy (misssmartiez):

subduction zones are formed when two plates, converge. You get what the answer is now? :)?

OpenStudy (misssmartiez):

Transform boundaries can't be the answer because they are plates that slide against each other, forming FAULTS, not likely to be ocean trenches because subduction doesn't occur.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Divergent boundaries?

OpenStudy (misssmartiez):

Di- verge, come apart.

OpenStudy (misssmartiez):

basically the opposite.

OpenStudy (misssmartiez):

Most likely to cause volcanoes. Boom, spur. The usual. More information ; http://www.kidsgeo.com/geology-for-kids/0045-divergent-boundaries.php
