Label the oceanic lithosphere, the asthenosphere and the zone of melting. Indicate the regions where earthquakes may occur. Draw arrows on the plates to indicate the directions in which they are moving. Draw a second set of arrows to show the direction of flow in the asthenosphere. Draw and label the locations of the trench and the accretionary wedge.
