A subduction zone is the area where tectonic plates meet. Specifically, when an oceanic plate subducts or moves under another plate. It is where two lithospheric plates converge and one goes underneath the other. The subducting tectonic plate will then be melted into magma under the other tectonic plate. I hope this helps you.

Answer


A place where one plate is pushed down under another, such that it melts into the mantle

Explanation:

A subduction zone is the largest wreck scene on Earth. These lines indicate the crash within two of the planet's tectonic plates. The plates are pieces of crust that slowly move across the planet's cover over millions of years. Where two tectonic plates meet, if one or both of the plates are oceanic lithosphere, a subduction zone will form. An oceanic plate will soak back into the mantle. Remember, oceanic plates are made from mantle material at midocean ranges.
