Given the question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Earthquakes at convergent plate boundaries mark the location of the subducting lithosphere. The motion of the lithosphere as it plunges through the mantle causes the quakes ( Figure below ). At greater depths, the plate heats up enough to deform plastically. Q: Earthquakes at convergent plate boundaries mark the location of the what? Choices: - abducting lithosphere - speeding lithosphere - shorting lithosphere - subducting lithosphere A:
The answer is:
subducting lithosphere
