Plate Boundaries

The diagram shows a landform on Earth. How did the movement of Earth’s plates form the landform?

• Two oceanic plates slid past each other.

• Two continental plates collided.

• One continental plate slid past an oceanic plate.

• One continental plate subducted beneath an oceanic plate.
