D.JAs the oceanic slab is down-thrusted along
subduction zones, the change in temperature and
pressure conditions brings about mineral instability
|(e.g. hydrous minerals) and the release of water to
the surrounding hot rocks.
A.) Mid-
oceanic
ridges

E. jthe rising magma in mantie convection cell brings
heat to the surface, transferring heat to the overlying
rocks. The transfer of heat due to convection is
accompanied by a decrease in pressure or
"decompression" associated with the spreading of
the lithospheric plates. These two work in tandem
promoting the partial melting of rocks along the
spreading center.
6. F.JSimilar to mid-oceanic ridges, the transfer of heat
B.) Mantle
plumes(hot

C.JSubduction and decompression result to magma generation.
The source of heat for mantle plumes is much
