Are formed when one crustal plate is forced under another.?

These formations occur at convergent plate boundaries, where one tectonic plate subducts beneath another, leading to geological features such as deep ocean trenches, volcanic arcs, and mountain ranges. This process can cause significant geological activity, including earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, as the subducting plate melts and interacts with the overlying mantle. The resulting pressure and heat contribute to the formation of magma, which can lead to volcanic activity at the surface.
