  2. is the process that takes place at convergent boundaries by which one tectonic plate moves under another tectonic plate and sinks into the mantle as the plates converge.
  3. is an actively deforming region where two (or more) tectonic plates or fragments of the lithosphere move toward one another and collide.
  4. s the portion of motion of a tectonic plate that can be accounted for by its subduction.
  5. is the study of the record of the Earth's magnetic field in rocks, sediment, or archeological materials.
  6. also known as conservative plate boundary since these faults neither create nor destroy lithosphere, is a type of fault whose relative motion is predominantly horizontal in either sinistral or dextral direction. Furthermore, transform faults end abruptly and are connected on both ends to other faults, ridges, or subduction zones.
  7. is the movement of the Earth's continents relative to each other, thus appearing to "drift" across the ocean bed.
