Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What would you be most likely to find at a convergent boundary between a continental and oceanic plate?
A
Mountains
B
Volcanoes
C
Mid-Ocean Ridge
D
Rift
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -At a convergent boundary between oceanic and continental lithosphere, the oceanic plate will always subduct, which will cause earthquakes and form volcanic arcs.

Detailed explanation-2: -Volcanos answer would be volcanoes and the reason behind this is answer is volcano, but the reason behind this is volcanoes are most likely. Volcanoes are most likely found found in a convergent boundary.

Detailed explanation-3: -At a convergent plate boundary, when one plate is oceanic, there are large volcanoes. These volcanoes are found in lines that outline the subduction zone. Earthquakes also happen in these zones. Subduction of an oceanic plate beneath a continental plate forms a line of volcanoes known as a continental arc.

Detailed explanation-4: -At convergent plate boundaries, geological features such as mountain ranges, volcanoes, deep sea trenches, and subduction zones can be created.

Detailed explanation-5: -Which of the following features are found at an oceanic-continental convergent plate boundary? A continental arc, mountains, and trench.
