Question

study the image of a plate boundary. which feature is forming? mountain rift valley earthquake island chain oceanic crust continental crust lithosphere lithosphere asthenosphere

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The image shows an ocean - continental convergent plate boundary. When an oceanic plate subducts beneath a continental plate, magma rises to the surface and can form a chain of volcanoes on the continental side, which can lead to the formation of an island chain if the subduction occurs near the edge of a continent close to the ocean. Earthquakes are a phenomenon rather than a land - forming feature. Rift valleys form at divergent boundaries. Mountains typically form at continental - continental convergent boundaries or due to other processes like volcanic activity in non - subduction related settings.

Answer:

island chain
