Study the image of a plate boundary.
The Asthenosphere is being divided by the Lithosphere on the left of the diagram. Oceanic crust is above the Lithosphere and continues until it reaches the Continental crust on the right. The Lithosphere layer on the right is moving left toward the Lithosphere layer on the left that is moving right and down. Two volcanoes are above the area where the lithosphere layers meet.
Which feature is forming?
mountain
rift valley
earthquake
island chain

Mountain.
This diagram shows a convergent (subduction) boundary: oceanic lithosphere is being forced under continental lithosphere, producing volcanism and uplift on the continental side — a volcanic mountain range. (Island chains form with ocean–ocean subduction; rift valleys form at divergent boundaries.)
